"Belvedere", a term used in English since the 16th century, derives from two Italian words: bel, which means beautiful and vedere, which means "view".

This 5000 SF move-in-ready masterpiece of glass, stone, and curved metal, built in 2005, is as architecturally elegant as it is playful and inviting.
