Mediterranean Courtyard Home

Tiled hipped roofs, arches, transoms, and shutters set off this beautiful Mediterranean style home. Situated on a corner lot, this home boasts of a beautiful entry courtyard with a fountain in the center, creating an aura of cool tranquility. Approached from the porte-cochere thru ornate, double wrought iron gates, this romantic courtyard also serves the purpose of a foyer. It opens to a private office on the left and to an elegant living room on the right, leading to a dining room, which can be enclosed and separated from the living room by sliding french doors.

Indoor/outdoor relationships are abundant, as shown by the lanai off the living room and another lanai adjacent to the dining room on the rear. The glassed-in round breakfast nook enjoys a view of the garden and shares space with the well-equipped kitchen containing a center work island.

Just off the living room is a dramatic circular staircase ascending to a spacious hall for family entertainment. This family hall overlooks the open courtyard below and has sliding french doors that open to a small verandah on the side. The hall also joins four bedrooms with individual walk-in closets and baths. A sumptuous master suite with a private balcony rests to the rear. The ample walk-in closet leads the way to a grand master bath with a corner tub.
