			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>When </strong><a class="wpGallery" href="http://nationwide-homes.com" target="_self"><strong>Nationwide Custom Homes</strong> </a>was asked to develop a new concept home for the <a class="wpGallery" title="NAHB International Builder's Show" href="http://www.buildersshow.com" target="_self">2010 International Home Builders show </a>in Las Vegas  The Captiva was the result.   Designed as a high-end baby boomer home. “The concept was to provide an exciting yet well-designed floor plan that addressed the needs of the aging baby boomer. The design achieved the much-wanted master suite on the first floor, providing one-level living for the owners.”<span id="more-1200"></span></p>
<p><strong>Nationwide</strong> designed The Captiva so owners wouldn&#8217;t have to sacrifice space for visiting or live-in children and grandchildren; they&#8217;re served by three additional bedrooms on the second level. Jack and Jill bathrooms create both privacy and convenience. Additionally, a home theater and game room keep pace with technology.</p>
<p><strong>The master bedroom</strong> features a separate retreat area with coffee bar. Adjacent to the master bedroom, a luxurious bathroom features a dramatic bathing area, separate dressing areas and a large walk-in shower with curved glass walls.</p>
<p><strong>One of the most dramatic</strong> design focus points in The Captiva was the curved stairway to the second floor, which homeowners can see from the outside through the double entry doors in to the foyer, which sports inlaid tile and hardwood flooring. The curving stairway, says Seekford, “Just needed a bride to stand on the stairs with her white dress flowing over the hardwood treads for a photo. It would have been beautiful&#8221;</p>
