The home opens into a gracious foyer with a generous custom coat closet, leading into a gorgeous kitchen and a south-facing living and dining room. The renovated, open eat-in kitchen is equipped with custom cabinetry, marble countertops and backsplashes, and a full suite of high-end stainless steel appliances by Wolf, Viking, Miele and Sub-Zero, including a wine refrigerator. Beyond the great room, a fourth bedroom or den enjoys large south-facing windows and its own renovated bathroom. The primary bedroom is a true private oasis, complete with an en-suite marble bath and custom closets. The remaining two bedrooms each feature custom California closets and newly renovated en-suite baths.
