Beyond, the sunken living room unfolds beneath soaring arched windows, framing treetops and distant mountains. Expansive walls of glass and louvered windows invite light and air while connecting the interiors to the landscape. Views extend across the grounds to distant ridgelines.

An extraordinary bonus media room features a sweeping, slatted redwood ceiling, and a built-in leather sofa and cabinetry. The kitchen's own fireplace lends warmth to an adjoining flexible office, sitting and dining area.
