Inside, find a modern open layout featuring a stunning kitchen with soapstone counters & high-end appliances, and a spa-like bath w/ soaking tub and steam shower. Two garage-style doors open to the decks for a light-filled cross breeze flowing through your home. This unit includes automated blinds, A/C, radiant heat flooring, and deeded garage parking.
