3. Then Neutra built this residence for Stuart and Lucia Bailey, creating a clean and contrasting living room, including huge floor-to-ceiling glass.

4. Glass became the focus of his project, he used the largest sheets he could find to create a half-ton sliding glass door leading to the terrace.

5. Mahogany features are taken full advantage of in the dining room to create a warm and welcoming dining space.

6. Floor-to-ceiling glass that offers stunning garden views has also been installed in the bedrooms.

7. The original design of the residence included only two bedrooms, but as the Bailey family grew, Neutra added additional bedrooms that were connected to the main house by a covered walkway.

8. Simon's main house is located nearby.

9. Inside is a large glass sculpture by American sculptor Dale Chihuly that hangs at the entrance.

10. Built in 2010, the contemporary home includes ceilings that are up to 7.5 meters high in some places.

11. In total, there are five bedrooms with beautiful windows that connect the space with nature, through which sunlight easily penetrates.

12. The house also has nine elegant bathrooms.

13. In the courtyard there is a beautiful cascading infinity pool. It is located between two houses.

14. There is a stone jacuzzi in the garden.

15. Over the years, Simon brought in architects and restorers to preserve Neutra's design. Today real estate offers complete privacy for its inhabitants.
