In case you might be feeling a little sad for the end of summer as you head back to work, let’s check out a home with nothing but beach and marshes all around. Today’s home is located in Painter, Virginia and boasts some of the best Chesapeake Bay shorelines to be found anywhere. The property is 450 acres and is totally secluded from the outside world. Ospralia was built in 1992 and has four bedrooms. The 3500 square-foot home has two wings with a bridge connecting them. There are two full kitchens, one gas and one electric and four decks. The home is listed at $3.5 million.

In honor of the Democratic National Convention I thought it might be fun to check out a little Denver real estate. Today’s penthouse loft is a full floor unit in the Flour Mill lofts which has views of Coors field. This has to be one of the most interesting loft conversions I’ve ever seen. The space features a circular kitchen with a drop ceiling, oversized brass hood and a pizza oven. The loft has over 5,300 square feet of space. The architect echoed the circular shape and dimensions of the Flour Mill’s storage silos to create a series of circular spaces, Angled walls feature floor lighting and the home features exposed ceilings and brick. The loft is wired with a Denon THX surround sound system and a Lutron lighting system. The north side of the loft is currently used as office space and has three round silo rooms that could be repurposed as a mother-in-law apartment, nanny suite or guest quarters. This side also features a 300 sq. ft. balcony. The south side of the 6th Floor penthouse is given over to the owner’s private quarters. It is listed at $3.25 million.
