A handy pantry helps keep the house organized for daily life and hosting. OUTDOOR OASIS The exterior is just as refined and features custom landscaping and irrigation. The garden is fully fenced with a flagstone patio and centerpiece lawn framed by a classic stone retaining wall and perennials that flower nearly every month of the year.
