Master bath combines wood and stone to create a zen environment.
Almost every unit has a terrace or
balcony and there are 23 penthouses
with rooftop terraces, according
to Mr. Grella.
Buyers will have four flooring
options as well as countertop and
backsplash options that include
white upper cabinets with dark
base cabinets, white upper and
lower cabinets and dark upper and
lower cabinets.
Launched in March, the sales center
model features at least one fully
designed unit.
“The goal for the design of the
model in the sales center is to appeal
to everyone, which is why we
chose a neutral palette and included
a touch of color and texture to
add interest to the space,” Alyssa
told the Press. “The pop of white
keeps it fresh while the dark blue
flokati pillows add softness and
warmth.”
The Grellas added a wire mesh
accent lamp to the glass end table
in the living room to accentuate the
nautical theme of being located at
the North Shore of Long Island.
“The mesh brings to mind a fishing
net or lobster cage so that you can
almost smell the saltiness while
the area rug adds a contemporary
touch that defines the living room,”
Mr. Grella said.
A resort-style neighborhood, Garvies
Point consists of 56 waterfront
acres situated between a wooded
preserve and the Long Island
Sound. Of those 56 acres, 28 are for
public open space.
The waterfront promenade stretches
one mile from the start of the
community to the beach at the
western end. Amenities include
trails, bike paths, children’s playground,
a dog park, boardwalk,
retail shops, access to Glen Cove’s
ferry terminal and beach.
Because the beach is the enclave’s
strongest selling point, the Grellas
created a social environment with
a peninsula island located in the
middle of the kitchen in an espresso
brown color with upper white
cabinets.
“The idea is that the host can still
socialize with their family or guests
while standing at the sink or preparing
a meal,” said Ms. Grella.
Pellegrino bottles, bright white
place settings, navy napkins and
a pitcher full of green limes add a
hint of color. “These accessories
make the kitchen look refreshing
while maintaining a demure and
neutral atmosphere,” said Alyssa.

Neutral tone in the guest bath is
created by wooden cabinetry
and stone walls.
