Exquisite minimalist interiors blend art with light and design to create a gated sanctuary of quiet, calm, and beauty.

The former is accessed through an architecturally striking semicircular staircase and encompasses a bedroom, sitting room, and his and hers bathrooms and walk-in closets. A second primary bedroom suite can be found on the main level, along with two additional bedrooms and several stunning living, dining, and entertainment spaces."
