Interior Design
The Douglas Residence stands as an architectural tribute to French Provincial design, reimagined for modern living. Positioned on a distinguished corner lot, the home presents two distinct façades, each highlighting the meticulous craftsmanship that defines this exceptional property.
The residence's grand entrance sets the tone, featuring hand-carved mouldings and sweeping archways that frame views of the manicured grounds. Soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the home create light-filled spaces that connect the interiors with the surrounding landscape.
Classical elements like parquetry floors and marble fireplaces harmonize with contemporary amenities, including a chef's kitchen with professional-grade appliances and a climate-controlled wine cellar. The grounds showcase formal gardens with century-old olive trees, a limestone-tiled pool terrace, and intimate courtyard spaces perfect for grand entertaining and quiet reflection.
The Douglas Residence embodies thoughtful design. Every detail—from the custom ironwork to the integrated smart home technology—serves both beauty and purpose, creating a home that honors tradition while embracing the future.
