At 7,300 square feet, the airy tri-level modern home was designed by Colega Architects to create a sense of indoor/outdoor living and bring abundant natural light into the space. Natural materials including stone and wood are incorporated throughout. Jon Grauman and Adam Rosenfeld of The Agency have the listing.
