Reimagined by much-admired and widely published Marmol Radziner architects, FAIA, the centerpiece of the home is a fabulous "great room" which consists of a cook's kitchen, family gathering & breakfast areas and opens to private, resort-like grounds with patios, sport court, field-size lawn, swimmer's pool and spa. The central living room with vaulted tray ceiling and original craftsman detailing opens to both the front and rear gardens. There is also a cozy, inviting media room/den, large gym and two powder rooms. The family bedroom wing consists of four bedrooms and four baths, including a primary suite with dual baths. Set in the garden is a detached, self-contained two-room guest house with full kitchen and private courtyard. Other features and amenities include a bonus room that works great as a children's playroom, generous laundry room and large detached storage room. Hardwood floors, extensive built-ins and authentic craftsman touches can be seen at every turn.
