The lower level includes a private front facing office, recreation room, and a custom temperature-controlled wine display wall. This level also offers a secondary laundry closet and two additional bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill full bath, one currently configured as a home gym. Outdoor living is a standout feature with four distinct outdoor spaces, including the rear patio off the family room, the garage rooftop deck, the private balcony off the primary suite, and the rooftop deck with sweeping skyline views.
