The vaulted entryway allows light to stream down from second-floor clear-story windows and flow past the half-bath and laundry area before opening out to the vaulted open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area. Each area is cleverly defined by a change in ceiling height, or wall and window position. The kitchen and dining area adjoin each other, and along with seating at the honed granite center island, there is easy casual or formal dining. From the kitchen to the living area, there is a remarkable change in the character of the room. The ceilings soar up and the space is filled with light from three sides. Two more banks of clear-story windows give the impression of being outdoors. There is a gas fireplace and sliding doors that open to the outdoor kitchen. The owner's suite is located on this level. It has a luxurious master bath with double marble vanity, marble tile, a fireplace, and a large walk-in closet.

The second level has three lovely bedrooms, each with en suite baths. At the stair landing is a cozy sitting area. There is a room particularly designed as a child's bedroom with an elevated bed and built-in desk. Here, there is the playful addition of a loft ideal for reading or napping. The room at the rear is a second master suite. The third bedroom overlooks the pool and patio. There is yet another loft space off the hallway. Lots of private spaces to get away and relax.
