Level 2 is reserved for the full-floor master suite that is truly a relaxing retreat, complete with a private terrace, his and her walk-in closets, and enormous spa-inspired bath. Here you can refresh and renew with a freestanding soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, and custom furniture-quality double sink vanity enhancing the ambience.
Occupying the 3rd story are 2 light-bathed bedroom suites, each with private baths and ample fitted closets, plus a hallway powder room.
