Contemporary, modern, and craftsman come together seamlessly in this unique design-build home, which is both Energy Star and Green Certified. The open floor plan features exposed I-beams, custom ironwork, modern sliding barn doors, and a nine-foot steel ceiling fan. Strategically combining elements such as steel and glass with natural textures like wood and stone creates an intimate atmosphere with an industrial appeal. Over sized windows bathe the living room in natural light while connecting it to the outdoors. The backyard includes a fire pit, outdoor kitchen, and sun deck that overlook the spacious pool and cascading fountains.
