Experience The Desertscape Oasis Awaiting You In This Modern Luxury House

Sharing is caring!

Are you tired of the usual everyday bustle of big cities? Do you long for a change of your surroundings, craving something new, bigger and better, while being in a more peaceful environment? I completely understand how you feel.

This modern house set in the foothills of the Santa Rosa Mountains is the perfect oasis that you need for two reasons. One, it’s away from the hurried city life. And, two, it gives you the feeling of complete serenity.

It is made so that you can see water from every single room in the house! And it might sound crazy, but that’s only a little benefit on what’s waiting for you behind the walls. If that sounds like something that you would be interested in (I know I Am!) then get ready to see the full picture of this modern luxury.

The Tranquil Entryway

The start of our tour begins at the entryway which is none other than a pond, pretty original right? 

As you walk towards the inside of the house on the left you can see a big tree, and on the right three little fountains elevate the vibe of the house even more. The sound of the fountains always instantly transports me to a new, relaxed headspace.

The Fireplace That Works Its Magic

The living room is a sleek house lover’s dream! The chic modern vibe it welcomes you with makes you feel like an A-list movie star as soon as you enter it.

It is a spacious area with a lot of furniture. It includes a big couch, four armchairs, and a couple of stools, all accompanied by two smaller tables in the middle. The colors of the furniture are neutral shades of gray, white, green, and black.

A dark gray stone wall, situated next to the opening of the living room, has a built-in fireplace in a straight rectangular shape. Are we having the same idea right now? A simple, night hangout with our friends or even a romantic evening with a special someone would be ideal here.

What’s interesting is that even though the living room has so many interesting details, it still keeps that minimalist touch. I don’t know about you but I’m already going through my contacts to see who to visit this beauty with!

Anyone Up For A Glass?

Any wine lovers reading this? Prepare to be blown away by this gorgeous wine storage area that sits in the living room. It is separated from the main room only with glass windows, which means that you can see its full display in all its beauty. 

I’ll be honest, this is one of the coolest wine storages that I have seen. It has over 100 bottles of wine, together with a special place for stylish glasses. But, that’s not even the best part – it includes LED lighting, which makes the whole setting stunning.

Now THAT’s An Open Space!

The main room opens up to a beautiful terrace. Immediately you’ll notice a large dining table surrounded by numerous chairs. Additionally, off to the right, there is another one, a fire table.

Here’s an idea: Choose a nice bottle of wine from the wine display, proceed to have dinner at the big outside table, and then move to sit next to the fire table for the rest of the night. Who’s with me?

Oh, Marble, My First Love!

Let’s go back inside the house for this beautiful dining area. It is a perfect balance of colors with dark brown cabinets, dark brown wall,s and a marble stone wall breaking through the otherwise all-white kitchen. 

Being the chef of this house has never been easier with the cooking area and the dining table right next to each other. Just seeing it makes me feel like there’s about to be some great gastronomy delights happening! Now all that’s left is for you to unleash your cooking skills. Are you ready?

Even Kardashians Would Love This Closet

I bet many of you have dreamt about a walk-in closet, and this house has it! On both sides of the room, you can see open cabinets ready to hang all of your clothes. And, at the end of the room, an open space awaits your shoe collection.

The closet also includes a good number of drawers for the jewelry and all other accessories. Once you settle in it’s going to be a fashion show every day in this house!

Meet The Stunner

Let me tell you right away, the master bedroom is a stunner. This double bed is so cozy and comfy that you will enter dreamland as soon as you go to bed. And, right next to the bed there is a little nightstand with a lamp.

Across the bed, a big flat-screen TV is positioned on the wall. Right under it is a little fireplace, adding to that cozy atmosphere to the end of the day completely relaxed. 

The Pool That Leads To Infinity

In the corner of the room, you can see a leather chair in which you can not only sit but lie in as well! I already arranged this as my little reading corner in my head. But, if you’re more into tech, you can always do some extra work on your laptop, too!

The bedroom opens up to a pool. I think we can all agree when I say what better way to wake up and start the day than by going in for a little swim! Next to the pool are the deck chairs where you can suntan and get some vitamin D flowing.

The Modern Masterpiece

The exterior of this house isn’t any less stunning! Just like inside the house, the main colors that prevail are the neutral shades of brown, beige, and white. The house is also surrounded by lovely natural elements including trees, green surfaces, and rocks of all shapes and sizes.

A place that is this modern and peaceful, filled with loads of interesting details yet maintaining a minimalistic style, is truly a rare find. So, there’s no need to wait any longer, this beautiful oasis is already ready for you!
