A REFINED INTERIOR RETREAT
The apartment features a sophisticated two-level, open-concept layout highlighted by tall ceilings and a dramatic "wall of windows" that bathes the space in natural light. The main floor is a chef's dream: a gourmet kitchen complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in breakfast bar flows seamlessly into the living area. It's an airy environment just as suited for quiet evenings as it is for casual weekend brunches. Upstairs, the large primary suite offers a distinct "loft" vibe.
