Originally built in 

1994, when Charles 

Alexander and his 

partner bought the 

home in early 2018, they 

put their own mark on 

things, swapping out 

pale, neutral beiges that 

swept though its rooms 

for a more contrasting, 

much more formal look 

that would suit their tastes—though they seem to share the former 

owner’s love of all things cinematic, which plays out in their very own 

movie theater complete with a massive screen, snack bar area, and 

seating enough for ten. “The theater room is one of our favorite places 

in our home,” says Alexander, a former native of New Orleans who 

spends his days working in pharmaceutical sales, while his partner is 

an entrepreneur. 

Making further changes by renovating the pool and backyard, the 

couple now have a home whose every inch is very much suited to 

their lifestyle and their style; and they have the perfect location to 

appreciate it all, set mere steps away from their private dock out on 

the lake and a view of the lush greenery of the fairway. “The location 

speaks for itself, as Burnt Pine is one of the premier neighborhoods 

in Northwest Florida and offers a true golf cart lifestyle that really 

appeals to us,” says Alexander of why the home was such a find. 

And whether they’re hosting a dinner party for their nearest and 

dearest or simply relaxing after a hard day at work, this is truly a 

home that welcomes them in, one where they can appreciate life and 

all it has to offer, from one moment to the next.
