From your private keyed elevator you are greeted by a gracious foyer and introduced to an ambiance of elegance. 17 large double-pane windows bath the interiors with natural light and showcase lovely treetop and city views from exposure to the south, west and north. The expansive open great room is perfect for entertaining, with sitting and dining areas, gorgeous wide-plank wood floors, and a sunny bay window sitting off the dining area.

The sparkling white open-plan kitchen is a contemporary dream styled with custom cabinetry from floor to ceiling, Carrara marble countertops and island/breakfast bar, honed black granite backsplash, plus high-end integrated Miele appliances including a wine cooler.

Down the hall are 2 spacious bedrooms, well-appointed bathrooms, and a windowed laundry room. Tucked at the far side of the residence is the divine primary bedroom retreat, complete with a custom walk-in California Closet for your belongings, a lovely outdoor balcony, and a spa-like bath clad in Carrara Bianco marble tile with double sinks, designer fixtures, a soaking tub, and glass-enclosed rain shower for refreshing.
