The living area is anchored by a dramatic water vapor fireplace and a custom-designed bar with dual beverage refrigerators and an art-inspired wine storage wall. Expansive sliders open to the main terrace, where a summer kitchen and glass railings preserve uninterrupted bay views. The chef’s kitchen blends architectural precision with performance, appointed with Wolf professional-grade appliances concealed behind sleek cabinetry, a five-burner gas cooktop with pot filler, dual built-in ovens with warming drawer, custom quartzite countertops, tile backsplash, and an oversized waterfall-edge island with dine-in seating. A walk-in pantry enhances functionality and organization.
