A large, light-filled main-level office provides exceptional flexibility for today’s work-from-home lifestyle. Designed with entertaining and relaxation in mind, the outdoor living experience rivals that of a boutique resort. The heated custom pool measures 40 feet by 18 feet and features premium Gunite and Pebble-Tech finishes for superior durability and longevity. The advanced mineral system uses significantly less chlorine than traditional pools, creating a more luxurious and low-maintenance swimming experience. Custom color-changing pool lighting transforms the backyard into a dramatic nighttime retreat.
