The second level showcases an elegant primary suite with fireplace and new spa-quality bath with quartz counters. Also upstairs are 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a serene family room with private rear staircase. The 3-car garage with epoxy floors is a rarity on the Island, and the front patio offers a sunny, relaxed space. Among the many upgrades to the home are luxury vinyl floors, quartz counters, new appliances, polished nickel cabinet and door hardware, custom closets by California Closets, Control4 Smart Home System, and custom window treatments.
