A beautiful stone fireplace adds warmth and charm to the main living area. The kitchen is truly a chef’s dream. It’s designed for people who love to cook or entertain with two Wolf ranges, Sub-Zero refrigeration, Fisher & Paykel dish drawers, custom cabinetry, and a hidden walk-in pantry that even includes a wine fridge. The kitchen opens right into the living space, and brand-new 10-foot impact glass sliders fold open to bring the outside in. Step outside and you’ll feel like you’ve entered your own private resort. The 12-foot-deep, gas-heated pool features a rock waterfall, spa, sun shelf, swim-up table, and even cooling misters for hot days.
