Designed by the renowned Signum Architecture and brought to life by Fairweather and Associates in 2020, this private retreat redefines modern luxury.

Durable materials of concrete, stained cedar, aluminum-framed expanses of glass, and Japanese shou sugi ban siding (insect and fire resistant) unify beneath a sleek parapet roof. Walls of glass disappear to dissolve the boundary between indoors and out and lead to an inviting heated pool w/ spa and an outdoor kitchen with expansive views.
