The home also features an extensive backyard with an infinity pool and jacuzzi with views of the city and pacific ocean. Plus, there are 37 solar panels on the roof, ensuring that your home will always be fully powered by the sun, and be so energy efficient that your monthly bill will be almost zero.

The ceiling in this office has retractable panels for solar control. The corner window stacks back, and allows for "open air" enjoyment when the six powered window panels retract behind two bookcase walls. Designers used mirror-polished mahogany for the desk, ceiling and bookcases. The custom mahogany desk has a flame-finished granite top.
