Designed by Daniel Kornberg of HarrisonKornberg Architects and built by Allen Hall of the Southampton Group this modern home was custom built in 2005.
The house was designed to maximize the property’s potential and was built with warm terracotta masonry, coated steel panels and stained wood soffits.

As you walk through the foyer, on your left is the living room with polished stained concrete floors and a wall of maple built-ins.
The floating ceiling with recessed lighting defines the living room.
A wall of windows and full glass doors allow access to the pool area from the living room.
A small office area with built-in desk, cabinets, and drawers is tucked in behind the kitchen.
