The custom kitchen showcases quartz countertops and a subway-tile backsplash, while four-inch-thick radiant-heated concrete floors and a plate-steel fireplace surround add warmth and refined simplicity. Sliding glass doors extend the living spaces onto a generous covered patio, creating an effortless transition between indoor and outdoor living.
