The sleek kitchen carries a modern silhouette with clean lines, contrasting countertops, stainless steel appliances, radiant heated floors, custom cabinetry accentuated by natural light through a thoughtful design that brings the outdoors in.

With a pet door leading to a secure backyard, pet lovers can rest easy knowing that their four-legged friends have the freedom to safely enjoy the outdoors! Upstairs, you'll find two bright and airy bedrooms flanking an open gallery space that's currently used as an office. A full hallway bathroom serves the guest room and office. In the rear of the house a luxurious master suite features a large bedroom and a spa-like ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub, separate shower, dry sauna, dual vanities, and radiant heated floors. A deck off of the master completes this level. The third floor is a flexible space that's perfect as either a bedroom or a great entertaining level with a skylight, green wall, wet bar, and sliding doors leading to an incredible upper-level deck, complete with outdoor audio. The tiered architectural design of the home allows views from the top deck down to the greenery in the rear courtyard, creating a spacious urban oasis across multiple levels.
