Immaculate landscaping with attention to detail starts at the gated entrance to the property.
A 200 ft driveway curves toward the house where there is a second gate providing additional security to the house and parking area.
A professionally installed 6 foot chain link fence with block foundation encloses the entire living space of the house, pool and parking area providing an additional security perimeter.
The house has an inside area of 2000 sq. ft. and an outside covered area of 3000 sq. ft. The single story home is built with a large level footprint which means the entire living space, inside and outside has no steps.
The 40 ft lap swimming pool was designed in consultation with an olympic swimmer.
The inside of the home is inspiring to those who appreciate the warmth and grandeur of exposed wood beams and rafters.
The large continuous beams are Douglas Fir, imported from British Columbia.
The design allows for the open concept kitchen/living room/office with high cathedral ceilings and few vertical columns.
The windows and doors are the highest quality, made in the U.S. by Pella.
Rollup sunshades and blinds are by Canet.
