Outside in the back of the yard there is the Artist/Flex Studio where you could go for inspiration, meditation, or maybe a little yoga. It also features a sizable locking closet for storage. The manicured yard has many tropical flowers as well as fruit and native plants growing. The natural lava rock landscaping adds a feeling of old Hawaii to the serene environment.
