The double-story great hall has a cathedral ceiling and a wall of glass looking out over sun-drenched magnolias, and the space is crowned by a gigantic central skylight. Seamlessly blending trailblazing architecture with gracious serenity, this private sanctuary offers an experience of nature from every room.
