Ascending the staircase reveals a spacious landing leading to a secluded home office, complete with access to the second-floor wrap-around deck—a tranquil space for contemplation or outdoor work sessions.
The sublime master suite crowns the upper level, featuring a sumptuous king-size bedroom with a wall-mounted fireplace, private access to the covered screened deck, and a voluminous walk-in closet. The en-suite bathroom boasts a luxurious steam shower with bench seating, dual vanities, and efficient utilization of space.
