The main entrance gate is at street level and adjacent to the double car garage, you then proceed down a short tiled walkway past the secure courtyard of the upper Master Suite. As you pass through the arched wood front door with Ladrillo accent into the foyer, you may take a few moments to appreciate the dome overhead, the extra wide and pleasant stairs to the lower level with it's flower cut, Tin Lighting Pendant done in the Mexican style, but your eyes will most likely focus on the abundant water view from the Great Room with it's tall ceilings.

The patio is an ideal location for entertaining or indulging in San Felipe's ever present sunshine. Partially covered with stairs to the beach, options within this space include alfresco dining, activities like bocce ball, horseshoes, volleyball, or sunbathing.
