Low-lying concrete walls define a small courtyard that fronts the residence. Wide wooden steps ascend to a glazed front door, which in turn leads to an airy foyer and stairwell.

On the ground level, one side contains a kitchen and an open-plan dining and living room anchored by a large concrete fireplace. The other end encompasses a generous master suite, with glass walls that offer unobstructed views of the landscape.

"The ground level of the house is completely open to the landscape on both the north and south sides," t...
