This gorgeous 10,650 square foot home sits on 17,250 square feet near the Sierra Madre. It is clad with brown / black volcanic stone, IPE wood, white stucco and steel. There’s a fairly large pool nearby and a terrace above it. Both are protected from the sun and neighbors by two massive oaks. There is also a cool, intimate garden with palm trees that can be viewed from both the living room and the dining and family areas. The topography of the site was not ideal so there are many subtle level changes between the rooms that only interest the interior design. Private areas of the house also have access to one garden, but the second. [ GLR Architects | Photography by Jorge Taboada ]
