Lipkin Cabana Custom Guest House Cabana

Lipkin Cabana Custom Guest House Cabana The deep lot sloping from the main house down to a large flat area in the rear provided a perfect opportunity to add a pool and a cabana in a Los Gatos garden setting. As people walk down to the cabana, meandering stone walkways set a tone of tranquility. One path transitions to a waterfall above the pool that cascades into other pools leading to the cabana. The cabana itself was designed as a guest house and also as an entertaining area. The main room features a large river rock stone fireplace and redwood stained scissor trusses. The lower chords of the trusses give a sense of enclosure within the room, while the overall height of the ceiling gives the room a spacious feeling. The lighting is faux painted to match the wood tones of the ceiling. An expansive deck with fire pit has a sitting gazebo cantilevered over the pool with lighting into the water below so one can actually sit over the water and enjoy the tranquil surroundings.
