  • Home is angled and windows placed to accommodate gorgeous view of private lake

  • The "diamond theme" can be found throughout the home and property -- from the street name, driveway, etched glass (in the front door and windows), kitchen tile, to one of Doug's award-winning decks (well known among our clients for his creativity, uniqueness, and attention to detail).

  • Multilevel intricate roof design with steep peaks. Intentionally pre- designed for future build-out of attic to accommodate maid or nurse quarters.

  • Lightening protection system

  • Sun tubes - a unique form of letting indirect light in through the roof without the use of a conventional skylight.

  • The grapevine trimming in this kitchen is hand-painted with gold leaf.

  • Three tiered center island with low sink to accommodate a motor-driven scooter, wheelchair, or children - this home fits anyone's needs.

  • This dining room is complete with indirect cove lighting to set the mood. This same type of lighting is found in various bedrooms throughout this home. Custom carpet inlay with tile surround.

  • This den is very open concept. Though this photograph shows a tight shot of the cozy area of this den, it has a real sense of gathering and scenery, with its clear view of the foyer, kitchen, and gaming area (pool table), while overlooking the oasis, deck, and dog run, gardens, and lake beyond.
