The home sits on a huge 23,954 sq ft lot. 8,154 sq ft of this lot, which is behind the physical house, was an abandoned pipeline purchased by the homeowner from Exxon. There are houses in the area built on this abandoned pipeline. Several unique features include a three tiered media room with surround sound and dining bar. Two wet bars, one up and one down. Future 4th bedroom is ready for a bath and closet. There are several areas where beds & baths can be added. In one of the two primary closets a hidden space is behind a faux bookcase.
