About This Home

As of March 2020

Modern Rhapsody! High end finish work meets Ultra modern design. Stunning example of modern/contemporary architecture that we like to call Modern Rhapsody. Designed and built by Designer Builder Jonathan Lei. With over 2 decades of custom home experience, his design and construction expertise shines through and through. From the moment you drive up, an oasis of botanical tapestry is designed to welcome and embrace you. Sit back in your large and level driveway as you feast your eyes on the incredible architecture composed of 7 materials that have been artfully chosen and skillfully crafted. Beauty aside, this house is built like a fortress. Over 52 individual concrete piers and up to 12” thick concrete retaining walls bunker this house into the hillside. Contemporary and sleek styling, yet warm and welcoming, a stronghold that is also open and inviting. Truly the best of all worlds. This home is shown by appointment only. There will be no open houses.
