Nestled between the oaks and sycamores of Mission Canyon sits the architectural masterpiece that has come to be known as the “Whale House.”  Inspired by the fanciful creations of Antoni0 Gaudi, renowned architect Michael Carmichael let his imagination run wild.  The result is this amazing home that offers an escape from the ordinary into a world of enchantment.  The Whale House can be used as a 2-4 bedroom home with an office or as a retreat.
