partners Adam Zane, Mark Small and Gil Charash note on their website. "After all,
there are many who can build a big house, but very few who have the ability to create
a warm family home with grand 'estate-sized' scaling. e conceptual design and
layout of our homes, along with the overall development of a site, are unique." Just
a quick glance at this house verifies the truth of this statement. Marble walls, quartz
countertops, high ceilings and a preponderance of natural light emphasize an elegant
and welcoming space that marries beauty with purpose.
Certainly few homes match the air of inviting elegance of this one, its stunning
view taking an active role. It partners with a series of interlocking rooms that flow
into one another, and from indoors to out, in an easy, natural rhythm. In addition to
forming a backdrop that elevates every moment into something picturesque, the view
is painstakingly incorporated into every facet of the home's design, ensuring that a
life within this structure also invites the embrace of Mother Nature. With wide plank
floors leading from the front door, past a central dining room with a temperature-
controlled wine closet that displays almost 500 bottles of one's favorite, carefully
collected vintages, to the main living area and gracious open plan kitchen and bar area,
the interior undulates in a soothing rhythm of large and small areas that, while certainly
generous, never feel cavernous or overwhelming—a balancing act that's difficult to
master. Simply put, this home is an example of what expertise looks and feels like.
