Stepping through the iron-clad gates, you’ll discover hand-laid Italian stone paving underfoot and a custom entrance door sourced from France. A stone arch creates a memorable first impression and, upon entry, provides direct sightlines to the pool terrace.

The foyer is flanked by a guest suite to one side and a handsome home office to the other. There’s no need for a cheesy Zoom background when you’ve got a stone fireplace and German-sourced, hand-stained wood built-in cabinetry in your midst.

The main floor provides seamless indoor/outdoor transitions via receding glass pocket doors. In the living area, Antolini stone floors and a gas fireplace are paired with 11-foot ceilings, gallery walls and a 98-inch TV. A sparkling crystal chandelier adds a touch of elegance to the space.

The focal point of the formal dining room is a striking, floor-to-ceiling marble fireplace. A glass-enclosed wine room provides storage for hundreds of vintages, while arched windows deliver verdant views of the backyard.
