Outside
Made for Celebration, Built for Comfort. Though Darkwood offers peace and seclusion, it was made for gathering. Whether it’s a candlelit dinner indoors, a summer garden party, or a winter evening by the built-in fire-pit carved from local stone into the garden—this home knows how to entertain.

The sweeping landscaped gardens, sheltered seating areas, and large lawned spaces are perfect for al fresco dining, outdoor barbeques, and celebrations under the stars. The adjoining garage workshop offers space to spill out into, and the private drive easily accommodates multiple vehicles.
