access to the private areas below.
FACING PAGE TOP: Exposed concrete exterior walls and old
growth custom milled cedar soffits make the back of the
house a sight to see. Eight hundred square feet of deck space
provides ample room for entertaining. Glass stair railings and
guard rails provide security along the upper deck without
compromising the views. The rear yard also includes an
inground pool and spa.
FACING PAGE BOTTOM: Aluminum accordion doors in the
kitchen help seamlessly blend the indoors with the outdoors.
A large central island includes an over-sized sink, storage,
and comfortable seating for six. All rooms in the home enjoy
ample natural light and radiant heated floors.
