This one is a 2023 build in Alton, a master-planned neighborhood in Palm Beach Gardens. It has four bedrooms, five bathrooms, and 4,390 square feet of living space on a 7,701 square foot lot. The listing also notes a heated pool and spa, a summer kitchen, and no rear neighbors.
A house like that gives you a lot to show and not much room to waste a frame. Here is how we approached it.
Start with the exterior
Buyers see the front of the house first, so the exterior sets the tone. Alton homes sit close together, so the angle matters. We shoot the front so the paver driveway, the landscaping, and the two-story elevation all read clearly without a neighbor's roof taking over the frame.
The kitchen and the staircase
Two features in this listing do most of the talking: the waterfall island and the floating glass staircase. Both are the kind of detail a buyer remembers after a day of showings. The kitchen is open to the living area, so we shoot it wide enough to show how the spaces connect. The staircase sits in the entry, and we shoot it from a spot that shows the glass railing and the open ceiling above it.
The backyard
With a pool, a spa, a summer kitchen, and a covered lanai, the backyard is a second living room. We shoot it in daylight with the water clean and the sky doing some of the work. A buyer should be able to picture a Saturday out there. The listing also says nothing sits behind the lot, which is worth showing and worth saying.
The 3D scan and floor plan
This listing also got a Matterport 3D scan and a floor plan. At 4,390 square feet with a ground-floor owner's suite, an upstairs loft, and three more bedrooms, a buyer wants to know how the rooms connect before they drive over. The 3D tour lets them walk it from their phone. The floor plan shows the layout at a glance, so the photos make sense in context. Buyers who have already walked it online tend to show up knowing what they want to see.
What this means for your listing
A home at this size has a long list of features, and a listing can only carry so many photos. Choosing which ones lead is half the job. For this house, it was the exterior, the kitchen, the staircase, and the pool. Those four show a buyer what makes it different from the next house on the list, and the scan and floor plan cover the rest.
We shoot homes across Alton, BallenIsles, and Avenir, and the rest of Palm Beach Gardens. Package details are on the Services page, and packages start at $185.
