Fully retractable sliding doors and a sunshade blur the line between indoors and out, opening straight onto a spacious rooftop terrace made for gatherings and enjoying the outdoors year-round, complete with a gas line. A powder bath is conveniently located off the living space on this level as well. Down below on the terrace level, a spacious mudroom with tiled flooring serves as a convenient drop zone when entering through the garage with elevator access to the upper levels. A bedroom and full bath on this level serves as an ideal private guest retreat or flexible home office or gym. The impeccable craftsmanship and design throughout lend the space a true custom feel with high-end finishes.
