We'll save the stunning backyard for last.

Behind the house is a breezeway and the freestanding potential casita (no bath)/studio/office. This space is currently used as the owner's office and library, but it's near the pool and features a wet bar, and has also served as a fun game and party room. Indeed, it has numerous uses, from an art or music studio. Beyond this freestanding casita sits a custom-built shed.
