The thoughtfully designed layout provides a seamless indoor-outdoor flow rarely found in city living. The chef's kitchen features marble countertops, custom cabinetry, and a top-tier stainless steel appliance package. Both bathrooms are outfitted with sleek stall showers and elegant finishes, and a dedicated wine cellar adds a sophisticated touch.
