Custom red oak cabinetry and vintage lighting by Gaetano Sciolari and Palwa create a sense of understated sophistication, while marble-clad bathrooms and a wood-burning fireplace offer timeless elegance. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring natural light into every bedroom, each with an en suite bath. The primary suite features a walk-in closet, soaking tub, and walk-in shower, with marble extending across both walls and flooring for a seamless, elevated finish. A wall of sliding glass opens to the backyardconnecting the interior to the heated pool, hot tub, and surrounding landscaping. The design blurs the line between indoor and outdoor living, allowing natural light and serene views to flow throughout the space. Recent upgrades include energy-efficient double-paned windows, tankless water heater, HVAC system, and a new roof. A detached two-car garage sits at the front of the property.
