elegant atmosphere. "You can tell that there was a lot of thought and
passion when designing this home," notes Riddle. e ground floor is

table leaves plen of additional space for bigger events or parties.

highlighting the seamless connection between indoors and out. With its
double-height ceilings, woodwork and moldings throughout, a fireplace
and doors that open to a private patio with a water fountain, the home

ever seen," Riddle and Arana confess. "With its tremendous volume, it is
much more than just a room with a desk."

and quietude prevail in a serene ambience. Each of the five complete
