A newly built wet bar with waterfall quartz counters adds an extra touch of luxury to this already impressive space.In addition to the main living areas, there is an additional bedroom/ office/ flex space off the living area that is a great bonus to this home, giving the owner even more flexibility in how they utilize the space.
