No expense was spared which is noted with features such as real Carrera marble countertops, solid sand-in-place hardwood floors, and beautiful wall mouldings and trim at every turn. The heart of the home is a stunning white kitchen that features Subzero and Wolf appliances, a commercial range hood, island seating, a beautiful eat-in breakfast room, and convenient access to the full bathroom and laundry room. This area also leads you to the jaw dropping rear yard that boasts 2 oversized stone patio areas, a gunite salt water pool, and a beautiful yard for gatherings of any size.
