This space is perfect for entertaining! When the owners originally moved in, this deck was not here. There were several steps down from the kitchen door, and the stone slabs were a toe-stubbing minefield. We added the deck and designed it perfectly for entertaining. Since we had several large pine trees removed from the property, we increased sun exposure creating a need for more shade. We had this awning custom made by PJ Canvas in Santa Rosa, CA. The awning tucks neatly under the roof of the house during the rainy months.

The under-mounted tub with a tiled skirt and quartz top separated by clear glass creates a spacious walk in curbless shower complimented by body sprays and shower wand for functionality. Recessed niches add to the storage as well as provide a decorative element. A custom sandstone tile layout brings the finishes together and provides a dramatic accent wall upon entry. © Jeffrey Totaro, photographer
