About Teph Inlet
Coastal Interaction: A Modern Architectural Marvel
Positioned atop an oceanic plateau, this home flawlessly melds with the outdoors. Comprising three rectilinear volumes, it captures both essence and vista. The red cedar-clad main house sits atop a transparent ground level. Meanwhile, vast sliding glass panels connect the home’s core—the kitchen and living room—with the inviting pool and deck.
Design Meets Functionality
Adjacent to the pool, a pool house offers secluded guest spaces. Together, they frame a private courtyard. Conversely, an aluminum-clad garage introduces the home’s public entry court.
Stunning Rooftop Finishes
White quartz stone crowns both accessory buildings. Furthermore, a linear sports zone unites them. This area, designed for family fun, easily accommodates a zipline and other beloved activities.
