European grandeur describes this mansion. Just driving up to the house into the motor court is impressive, then you go inside. You enter into a formal foyer that leads into a loggia that wraps around the entire house and courtyard. The entire design is around a pool courtyard much like a hotel. As you can see in the house plans below, every room you can imagine is included. Enjoy this mansion design.
Main floor home plan. Look, the house wraps entirely around the pool courtyard. This is a rare design feature and one I absolutely love. It includes a loggia providing access to each room.2nd story – the upstairs is relatively small with only 3 bedrooms. All 3 bedrooms look out onto the courtyard pool.
The mansion’s exterior walls have an earthy tone that matches well with the terracotta driveway leading to a pair of beige garage doors matching with the minute details of the house as well as the stairs and banisters.
The lavish and luxurious living room is topped with a majestic chandelier hanging over the wooden coffee table in the middle of beige cushioned arm chairs that match well with the mantle of the fireplace.
The mansion has an informal dining area just a few steps from the formal dining room. This area has a simple chandelier over the round dining table surrounded by cushioned chairs and benches.
The lavish kitchen has a brilliant ceiling with decorative exposed wooden beams that hangs a wrought iron chandelier over the large kitchen island.
A closer look at the kitchen island shows its gorgeous and wide countertop that is complemented by the dark wooden body below that matches well with the exposed wooden beams and the vent hood above the cooking area beside the island.
The formal dining room has beige walls, beige ceiling, beige fireplace and beige dining set. These are complemented by the wooden exposed beams of the ceiling that hangs a majestic chandelier over the rectangular dining table.
The hallway just beside the living room is lined with charming beige stone pillars paired with a row of arched windows and glass doors on the other side.
The cozy and homey family room and entertainment room has a large wooden structure built into the beige wall that houses the entertainment system along with shelves on both side matching the exposed wooden beams of the ceiling as well as the brown cushioned sofa set.
The mansion has an outdoor dining area with a wrought iron outdoor dining set cushioned with small pillows with a beautiful background of the several arches of the exterior.
These arches lead to the backyard of the mansion that is dominated by a large and brilliant swimming pool that serves as a nice contrast to the earthy exterior walls.
There are comfortable and relaxing sitting areas on the pool side with lawn chairs underneath the shade of tall tropical trees.
