Description

This extraordinary 2018 custom-built home is truly one of a kind, meticulously crafted to blend luxurious living, seamless entertaining and a harmonious connection of indoor and outdoor spaces. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to inspire joy and elevate your lifestyle. An award winning powerhouse team brought this design to life: Michael Abraham Architecture, Oakley Home Builders, Park & Oak Interior Design and PB Kitchen Design.
