The sleek kitchen features Italian cabinetry, quartz countertops, GE Monogram appliances, a built-in wine refrigerator, and generous workspace for both everyday living and entertaining. French doors off the dining area open to a private rear terrace, creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection.

Upstairs, the primary suite is privately positioned with oversized windows, automated shades, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath with dual vanities and a custom shower.
