The kitchen has been completely remodeled and opened up, allowing the captivating view to extend seamlessly through the main living space. The Unit is equipped with an in-unit laundry room, walk-in closets in each of the two bedrooms and a flexible third room that can serve as a den, office or child’s bedroom, all of which make everyday living here is as effortless as it is beautiful. Step outside any room and marvel at the 48x8 foot Gulf-front balcony—large enough for both a dining table and a separate seating area—perfect for al fresco meals, morning coffee, or a cocktail party with friends to enjoy an unbeatable view of the sunset.
