The chef’s kitchen is a culinary dream, complete with Marble and Silestone countertops, new solid hardwood floors, and a premium appliance package featuring Thermador, Dacor, Bosch, and GE double ovens. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private sanctuary featuring a down-to-the-studs renovated marble bathroom, custom furniture-base vanity, custom wood closet doors, and soundproofing Basalt Rock insulation. The additional bedrooms are equally impressive, with custom wood doors, oil-rubbed bronze hardware, and a built-in study nook.
