The kitchen is appointed with a Wolf and Sub-Zero appliance suite, while an upstairs apartment kitchen provides additional flexibility for guests or multi-generational living. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a heated pool and spa, expansive patio and porch areas, a French garden, mature landscaping, and a 4.5-acre sprinkler system. Additional improvements include a 1,875 SF workshop with one air-conditioned bay and air-conditioned 3 car garage, and a private electronic gate.
