The original residence, a 19th century farm house in Alamo, is situated on a large site allowing the addition of a pool, pool house, landscaped area with gazebo, sport court, fountain, patios and lawns. The design concept was to marry the new with the old seamlessly and to create a pleasant outdoor experience for a family who loves nature, gardening and sports activities. The new pool house contains a small kitchen, a large gathering room with a wall of sliding glass doors, a large fireplace, guest room, bath, and storage and exercise rooms on the lower level. The landscape was designed by Babcock and Hansen of Lafayette.
