A generously proportioned foyer welcomes you upon entry, which can easily serve as a dining area or home office, and is equipped with two closets. One of these closets is a walk-in fitted by California Closets and is so spacious that it is nearly another room in itself.
Natural light floods the expansive living room through a wall of windows framing spectacular expansive panoramas. An adjacent corner dining nook offers double exposure and abundant storage through elegant built-ins. If desired, this space seamlessly transforms into a second bedroom.
Culinary aficionados will appreciate the windowed chef's kitchen, adorned with warm wooden cabinets with under-cabinet lighting, premium Caesar stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The space is completed with a pantry, deep storage drawers, and a lovely countertop to sit at while enjoying morning coffee.
The corner bedroom, impressively vast, hosts four windows over two exposures, three closets, and ample room to house king-sized furnishings. The adjacent windowed bathroom adds convenience to luxury.
Finishing touches include striking crown moldings, beautiful hardwood floors, and new light fixtures throughout the residence.
