A dramatic yet delightful blend of indoor and outdoor space can be made quite literally at the press of a button in this spectacular contemporary home that must be seen to be fully appreciated. Balancing privacy with close proximity to the surrounding community, a combination of exposed wood, steel, and glass create a perfectly versatile setting either for entertaining or for quiet time at home. Floor-to-ceiling windows, including two bi-fold hangar doors in the great room lend an abundance of natural light and views, from every room, of the surrounding green oasis and the San Francisquito Creek.
