Designed for elevated outdoor living, the resort-style backyard features a resurfaced saltwater pool and spa, an updated pool heater, decorative fountains, remote-controlled pool systems and multiple entertaining areas surrounded by lush European-inspired landscaping, stone pathways and manicured grounds. Canary palms and mature landscaping create a private, luxurious setting.
