A gracious front driveway, set in a lush communal garden setting reveals a stately entrance, with granite steps leading to a formal front doo…r. In a nod to classic old-world architecture, the entryway and foyer are reminiscent of a private and prestigious club, and with just four suites within, it is in a way, very much that.

The kitchen opens onto a spacious living room and adjacent dining space, both sharing the warm and welcoming glow of a see thru fireplace. Beyond the dining room, the first of 2 private terraces, expands the possibilities for hosting guests inside and out on a warm summer evening.
