The full walkout basement is a haven of entertainment, featuring a state-of-the-art wine cellar with a tasting area, a recreational room with wet bar, a game and media areas. Additionally, there is a full service exercise room, cleverly concealed behind an invisible "door" in the cherry paneled wall.
