In addition, the open kitchen boasts custom cabinets and a spacious granite island. Brand new Bosch appliances, including a refrigerator and dishwasher, add to the modern convenience of this space. The south-facing family room is a welcoming gathering spot, whether you're basking in the sunshine during the day or cozying up by the natural gas fireplace on chilly nights.

The laundry room, oversized linen closet, and two more bedrooms, each with a walk-in closet, sharing a double-sink bathroom, complete the second floor. All bathrooms on this level feature in-floor heating, and skylight windows fill the hallway and stairway with abundant natural light. Step onto the master bedroom's south balcony to savor a glass of wine while enjoying stunning nighttime views of the downtown cityscape.
