Upstairs, the living/dining area has two fireplaces, and wood-trimmed French doors that lead out to a wraparound balcony.
The gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, an oversized center island, stainless appliances, a walk-in pantry, wine refrigerator, and breakfast nook.
The third floor has showroom-style closets, a spa-like bath and jetted tub. The backyard is lined with hedges, and has a plunge pool and spa, and an outdoor dining and BBQ center.
