“Casa Orquidea” was designed by California architect Miguel Podolsky and custom-built by engineer Karl Gronemeyer.

The home’s open floor plan features traditional Spanish design elements and high-quality materials, resulting in a practical yet imaginative living space.

Inside, you’ll find a Great Room with a Dining Area that flows into a well-equipped kitchen with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and a breakfast bar. The poolside Master Suite opens to the outdoor terrace with shaded lounge areas. Two guest suites share a bathroom with traditional Spanish touches. Upstairs, the Entertainment Room has a vaulted 8-meter ceiling, hardwood floors, a Wine Bar, Home Theater, and Lounge area. Large windows bring in natural light, and handcrafted doors lead to a covered balcony with hammocks for relaxing.

The second-floor Master Suite is spacious and elegant, with direct access to the terrace, a bathroom with double showers, and a walk-in closet. Two more guest suites share a bathroom and are located near the Entertainment Room.

The home is equipped with 16 solar panels, a security system, new air conditioning systems, and built-in surround sound. The pool equipment and utility room are housed in a separate outdoor compartment.
