Right off the master bedroom is a private patio, where the owner can enjoy a cup of coffee and admire the garden.

A concrete-slab patio leads directly through the sliding glass doors of a bedroom of this one-story house. A simple, two-person bistro set and some rectangular, architectural planters with agaves echo the uncluttered simplicity of this Midcentury Modern-style house.

This type of patio is meant for relaxation and enjoying the view. Because it is not easily accessible to other areas of the house, including the indoor or outdoor kitchens or pool, it is definitely not a patio built for entertaining.
