The architect - also the homeowner - of this 5-year-old farm ranch
created a country club backyard complete with an outdoor sound
system. The patio, accessible from the family room through French
doors, contains a built-in barbecue, a granite island, a
refrigerator and a kegolator, which holds a keg of beer and has a
dispensing system. In a separate area is an in-ground pool (with
electric cover) and an outdoor shower. The nine-room house has an
open floor plan and is outfitted with marble and Brazilian cherry
wood floors with radiant heat and recessed lighting. There's a
stone fireplace in the family room and a gourmet kitchen with
granite countertops. Of five bedrooms, the master is on the main
level.
