Entertainment and relaxation reach new heights on the large double decks spanning both levels-one upper for relaxing under the stars, and a lower for lounging in the shade-each designed to maximize those epic views, whether hosting summer barbecues, stargazing parties, or simply unwinding with a book as the sun dips below the layers of blue-hued mountains. This mountain-top retreat isn't just a home; it's a gateway to a lifestyle of serenity, adventure, and natural beauty, where every detail-from the hand-selected materials to the thoughtful layout-has been curated to foster connection with the environment and loved ones.
