In the endless search for architectural sensations, we are immediately drawn to this residence in Hopewell, Hanover. It is discreetly built on a densely forested hillside ridge, among towering royal palms and captures sweeping 180-degree vistas of the cobalt-blue sea and the emerald-green golf course from every room.

The single-level home is designed with a distinguishable roofline of assembled peaked hip and gable wood shingle shapes. The addition of a courtyard at the front welcomes and offers a grand sense of arrival.

A partial wraparound 50-foot, heated infinity-edge swimming pool is integral to the outdoor leisure area — complete with a visually stimulating water fountain; shallow submerged lounge areas inside the pool; and arched bridges over the water.
