A classic courtyard entry, arched doorways and a living/dining room area beneath truss beam ceilings set the stage for this contemporary spin on a Spanish-style home Irvine’s Shady Canyon area. Rows of French doors give way to intimate sitting areas and a wood-lined deck set level with a pool and spa. Elsewhere, an outdoor living room and a fire pit complete the resort-like setting.
