Supplements
The bedroom wing features a fully custom lockable barn door closing it off from the rest of the house, which provides both sound proofing and unparalleled security. Additional security comes from all the windows and doors in this wing being upgraded to triple pane and laminated glass making them virtually indestructible, as well as a 'safe room'. There is a closet in one of the secondary bedrooms with reinforced walls that can be used as a safe room. The amazing design of the back yard features custom designed iron work throughout, and extensive white stone in brilliant architectural designs. There is even a running/walking path around the entire perimeter of the yard, which measures exactly a mile at 10 times around. The bar area is complete with a custom designed temperature controlled all glass wine cabinet with horizontal wine racks. Other amazing features include hardwood floors throughout, custom Weathershield windows, plantation shutters and extensive built-ins throughout the home.
