Khaya; 4 Bedroom Leeward Canal Home Real Estate Opportunity

Khaya aeriel view of land parcel in proximity to the leeward channel and open ocean

After designing Fleur de Lys, Acajou, and Cotton House, all homes of traditional Caribbean architecture and interiors, our time to build contemporary Caribbean has finally come.  Millworks have always been a distinguishing factor in our builds, and Khaya will be no different.  Our primary business, TC Millwork, will be providing all of the woodworks; cabinetry, interior and exterior doors, and built-in furniture.  Millworks will primarily be built of African Mahogany, or Khaya, a genus of seven species of trees in the mahogany family and hence the name of the home.   Native stone will be another key feature within the interiors, balancing the sleek dark wood with brightness and texture. Read more about the unique location and benefits below.

Leeward WATERFRONT LIVING OPPORTUNITY

This contemporary pre-construction home lies on a west facing canal lot in the prestigious Leeward development on the northeast point of Providenciales.  Well reputed as one of the most affluent, safe, and attractive neighborhoods, the home is walking distance to the International School and Blue Haven Marina and amenities. Only a short distance drive to Leeward Highway, the location is well appointed for either full time residents or short term visitors.  With 101’ft of canal frontage to the west, 5 minute access to the Leeward channel to the North, and a flamingo frequented wetland to the south (pictured below), this parcel is a water lovers paradise.

TC Millwork Recent Renovation

Longbay Beach House Powder Room

TC Millwork has had a remarkably busy last year.  Early in 2012 our millworking division was hard at work on this incredible renovation.  A beautiful house located on Longbay Beach had seen many changes over the course of it’s history but new owners had a striking contemporary vision for it’s future.  While we refinished many of the doors and windows to coordinate with the overall look, much of the interiors were completely gutted and re-envisioned, which gave us the opportunity to create several custom woodworks.  These varied from clean lined combination open shelf and cabinet door vanities to imaginative designer furnishings like the oversize sofa swings hung from the octagon shaped sitting room and the live edge walnut slab kitchen island.

TC Millwork featured in Coastal Living

While rummaging through some magazine stacks I came across this January-February 2009 issue of Coastal Living.  This original Blue Mountain Villa featured just so happened to be a client of TC Millworks.

Several custom pieces were built including a beautiful table made of rare zebrawood, and the entertainment center pictured below with woven fiber inserts within the paneling.

I’m terribly late with sharing this spread but better late than never!

The New Look Of Wood

All images from the April 2010 issue of House Beautiful
Apparently I am not the only one who has had pastels permeating their April inspirations. Check out the cover of the current House Beautiful (perhaps most of you are already onto May’s but here on island we are a bit behind). This issue had me at hello and kept me engaged from cover to cover. As a creative designer for a woodworking company, I am in awe of all things wood; floors, doors, windows, furniture, fratwork, the list could go on and on. I am thrilled that this House Beautiful made the topic their cover girl and they did not dissapoint with covering her extensively throughout the issue. There is a feature on the beautiful raw work of master craftsman George Nakashima, who I agree with whole heartedly in his love of imperfections, seeing them as integral to a woods beauty and uniqueness, just like the grain. There is the fascinating and educational timeline on wood world history, the fun and informative pages on various wood names, origins, and uses, and even a last note on how best to care for your own precious pieces. For our TC Millwork clientele there are plenty of fantastic visuals to demonstrate “The New Look of Wood;” tinted, reclaimed, or washed, we would love to recreate any of these stylishly relaxed looks in your home.
