Yet, this five-bedroom home carries that distinction. With unique aspects such as tall timber-lined ceilings and walls, four mezzanine levels, and custom cabinetry and shelving, the architecture will ensure a joyful living experience.

A self-contained studio can serve as a home office or studio. All this surrounded by lush mature landscaping.
