Close up: Stepping inside, the atrium courtyard in the center of the house really defines the mood of the home. Everywhere you look there are cathedral ceilings, skylights, large windows, sunlit views and doors accessing garden areas. The formal sunken living room with fireplace and dining room are on the right.
Down the hall the kitchen opens to a good sized family room with fireplace that leads to the covered patio.
