Originally designed by Mark Mack, this bold 2 bedroom, 4 bath space has been impeccably re-imagined and stands as a triumph of engaging, functional design. A metal and glass staircase creates a pronounced composition of interlocking forms. An alluring mezzanine authoritatively floats above the first floor living space and multi-functional office area with wet bar. An industrial garage door retracts to remove all barriers between the two-story living room and lush, private garden with tranquil fountain. This home is balanced with both open and intimate spaces, illuminated by soft sunlight, and featuring only the finest finishes and thoughtful details throughout. Old-growth oak wood and concrete floors with radiant heat, solid oak and glass shelving, Lutron lighting, quality cabinetry and sumptuous Fornasetti wallpaper. A center island of wood and Carrera marble grounds the kitchen and dining area as an inviting centerpiece perfect for engaging entertaining.
