The living room, with furnishings from RH, includes detailed millwork and beautiful built-in cabinetry. Natural light fills the space from the wall of windows overlooking the pool. The "artwork" over the fireplace is actually a Samsung TV.

One of Anna's must-haves was the large stainless steel range by ILVE, an Italian appliance-maker. The kitchen includes an adjoining breakfast room with a sliding glass door leading to the outdoor living area.
One of the family's favorite spaces is the three-seasons outdoor room with living and dining areas, retractable screen walls, fans and heaters. They used tongue-and-groove wood siding on the ceiling for a rustic feel. The floor is stamped concrete.
Anna went for a feeling of calm in the primary bedroom with dove gray walls a soft-hued rug and crisp white bedding. The room has a private door leading to the pool area and a vaulted, 12-foot ceiling.

The pool includes a large tanning shelf and oversized spa. The wooded lot offers total privacy in the summer months.
California Closets designed the large dressing room/closet off the primary bathroom with a place for everything. The space feels like a cozy boutique.
