The home has a swimming pool that’s surrounded by a deck with plenty of space for relaxing in the sun, and a large grassy terrace allows for uninterrupted views of the ocean.

Inside, there’s a living room with a double height ceiling. Throughout the interior, white marble, granite, brushed stainless steel and bronze elements have been included to contrast the white walls that are ever present throughout the house.

An informal lounge has sliding glass doors that open to the pool deck and a BBQ area. A decorative ceiling detail draws your eye upward, making the room feel taller.

To reach the upper floors of the home, there’s a triple volume glass lift that’s surrounded by a circular glass and steel staircase. An LED metal pendant light fitting by Quasar Citadel compliments the staircase perfectly with its circular cascade design.
