Key Features & Highlights ("What's special"):
This property is presented as a high-end, architecturally significant home, more than just a dwelling. The builder describes it as "Mesoamerican Contemporary," suggesting a unique and artistic design.
Architectural Philosophy: "A cruciform plan grounded in Cantera stone... black, gray and volcanic. It anchors the structure like myth anchors a memory. The form is deliberate. Geometry sharpened by light. There is no waste, no excess. Only rhythm. Wood, glass, stone — each in balance, each unafraid of its own texture. The walls rise clean and quiet. The lines do not shout. They cut. The rooms hold breath. The light moves. Spaces are open, but not empty. They are made for stillness. Made for gathering. Made for living without apology." This poetic description emphasizes a minimalist yet powerful design, blending natural materials with precise geometry. Cantera stone is a volcanic rock often used in Mexico and Central America for carving and building, known for its beauty and durability, and aligns with the "Mesoamerican Contemporary" theme.
Grand Entry: Custom pivot door and gracious foyer with double-height entry, walnut finished walls, striking floating staircase, designer fixtures, and hardwood floors.

Adjacent Scullery: A practical and aesthetically pleasing "chef's kitchen of France" inspired space, enhancing the main kitchen's functionality while maintaining a clean look.

Second Floor: Spacious den and library (currently kids' quarters) and 4 additional bedrooms. The mention of "2 Primary Baths, 2 Primary Suites" suggests flexibility in how the bedrooms are used, possibly offering an additional luxury suite.
