its common-gathering-space status in the modern home, the
kitchen features 11-foot ceilings and a gleaming quartzite island
where friends and family can comfortably gather. "The builder

"For that reason, there's a lot of detail in the home because it was
going to be his dream house." The home's entrance is a grand
one—you are ushered into the airy front living room with soaring
22-foot ceilings, and your eyes follow a dramatic, geometric rail
system along the stairway and balcony.
