Designed with entertaining and relaxation in mind, the 3rd floor showcases an open-concept layout, where expansive living spaces flow seamlessly into one another. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring an oversized island, custom wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a beverage fridge. A dining area and inviting great room with gas fireplace and soaring cathedral ceiling opens to a spacious deck, providing the ideal setting for soaking in spectacular sunrises and sunsets! A four-season sunroom with separate heat and air-conditioning was designed for ultimate relaxation.
