About the House

A Legacy of Thoughtful Design

“Alla Famiglia,” an Italian phrase meaning “for the family,” is the perfect name for this stunning European-style home designed for multi-generational living. Set on 1.6 acres sloping toward a natural creek, the home blends old-world charm with modern elegance. A limestone and stucco façade with copper accents creates a warm, timeless first impression.

Guests enter through arched double doors into a grand hall that spans the depth of the home. Wide-planked European oak floors and soaring ceilings with rustic beams set a tone of classic comfort. The layout encourages gathering — whether around the Italian marble kitchen island or in the great room, where a 12-foot collapsing glass wall opens to a resort-style outdoor space.

The covered patio features a built-in grill with a copper/plaster hood and wood-fired pizza oven. Just beyond, a cabana and 10-foot waterfall flow into a luxurious pool with a waterslide, sun deck, and play area. The primary suite showcases a cross-vault ceiling and custom plaster walls, with barn doors revealing a freestanding copper tub and double walk-in shower set against a dramatic dolomite and granite backdrop.

A dramatic spiral staircase framed by a 30-foot window wall leads to the lower level — designed with children and grandchildren in mind. This space includes personalized bedrooms, a recreation room, workout area, steam and infrared saunas, and a movie theater with stadium seating. Throughout, rustic and beautifully imperfect elements create a sense of warmth and authenticity — timeless finishes designed to age gracefully alongside the family that lives here.

Alla Famiglia is more than a home — it’s a legacy of thoughtful design, comfort, and togetherness.
