Together, these layered outdoor living spaces were thoughtfully designed to maximize the views, natural surroundings, and serene atmosphere. Inside, rich dark-stained hardwood flooring and refined box trim create a warm, upscale feel throughout. The dramatic living room features soaring 20-foot ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that serves as a stunning architectural centerpiece. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring premium Thermador appliances, a 6-burner gas range, pot filler, oversized center island, custom cabinetry, and high-end finishes.
