Outdoor living spaces*
Step outside into the lush, South-facing backyard and be greeted by a breathtaking oasis, where an oversized pool with an integrated waterfall spa awaits. Recline on the chaise lounges under the warm California sun, take a refreshing dip in the brand new pool and spa and rinse off in the double outdoor shower.
Enjoy a game of pool or use the grassy backyard area for a game of corn hole, surrounded by the stunning backdrop of palm trees and mountain vistas. When it’s time to relax, patio sofas under the covered pavilion invite you to sink in and unwind.
