Fountains That Make A Splash
Reposted from The Art of Living | October 3, 2018
Whether classically detailed or uniquely sculptural, a fountain brings visual interest and the soothing sounds of water to any property. Each of these five homes — from the Hamptons to California’s wine country — uses a fountain to turn an outdoor area into a peaceful, luxurious oasis. Featuring two homes from Santa Fe:
