Entry (18' x 11'):
This formal 16’ high Entry has three sets of solid 11’ doors leading to various wings of the home. The floor is black and white marble of checkerboard design. A clerestory window is above the main entry doors from the circular motorcourt.

Galleria (27’ x 10’):
Upon entering the Galleria, one has a sweeping view of the Living and Dining Rooms, the vestibule for the Master and Guest Suites and the pool and terrace beyond. Scrollwork cornices top the entryways and the 12’ ceilings continue throughout the home. The parquet flooring extends throughout the Living and Dining Rooms. Massive 11’ tall pocket doors enclose the Dining Room and are elaborately hand-painted in an oriental design, featuring flowers and birds.

Living Room (29’x 26’):
A white carved marble fireplace, with black marble liner and gas starter, is centrally located on a wall of windows offering panoramic ocean, island, and coastal views. Arch-topped patio doors open onto the covered ocean-view loggia. Deep crown molding accents the ceiling.

Dining Room (20' x 15'):
The Dining Room walls are covered in silk and topped by deep crown molding. Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors lead to the covered rear loggia that looks up to the mountains. A swinging door allows for service from the Kitchen.

Kitchen (24' x 21'):
Immediately inside the entrance from the Dining Room is a butler’s service area with a large stainless sink, Thermador warming oven, counter space and cabinets. A large island has a butcher-block top with cabinets below and a dacor four-burner electric cooktop with grill. Other appliances include a Sub-Zero refrigerator; a Sub-Zero freezer; a KitchenAid dishwasher; two sets of built-in Termador double ovens, one set with a microwave; and a Chambers four-burner gas cooktop with Trade Wind hood above. Extensive storage is provided by two large walk-in china closets, a walk-in glass double-door pantry, and cabinetry above and below the countertop that runs the length of the wall along the front motorcourt. Windows above the triple-sink set in this countertop look out over the motorcourt to the expansive coastline and ocean views beyond, while sliding display windows along the rear wall of the Kitchen offer scenic mountain views.

Laundry (12’ x 11’):
Adjoining the Kitchen and housing a walk-in silver closet, a temperature controlled wine closet, and a powder room with an oval leaded-glass window is the Laundry, that is equipped with a utility sink and electric appliance hookups. Windows overlook a small rear terrace that accesses the Garage and Staff Apartment.

Library/Office or Guest Suite:
Off the Entry and through a passage with three large closets and a powder room with an oval leaded-glass window, lit by wrought-iron and crystal sconces, is a private, carpeted suite, currently used as a Library/Office but easily converted for use as an additional Guest Suite.

Library (17’ x 15’):
Fabric covers the walls of the Library and Office. Windows overlooking the motorcourt have mountain views and mahogany cabinets are topped by built-in bookcases. There is an in-room full shower-over-tub bath with an oval leaded-glass window and marble vanity.

Office (20’ x 12’):
A private Office is formed by closing the pocket doors at the back of the Library. The Office enjoys ocean vistas and a private patio through floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that have an exterior security screen.

Twin Dressing Rooms with built-in marble-topped bureaus and vanities share a central Bath area between them. Each Dressing Room has wall closets with extensive built-in storage units, a window with side mirrors over a designer sink, and pocket doors to the Bath. The design theme of oval leaded-glass windows carries through in this shower-over-tub Bath.

A window with pool and mountain views is above the hand-painted sink with gold-plated fixtures, set in a vanity topped by white marble counter, backsplash and sill. The Jacuzzi tub has gold-plated swan fixtures and is set in a white marble base, with white marble display shelving built into the wall behind. Windows on either side of the tub have ocean views. Half a dozen large closets line the walls.
