Modern comforts continue inside, including an impressive two-person jetted spa tub with built-in headrests! Enter through the welcoming foyer into a gourmet kitchen featuring cathedral ceilings, skylights that bring in natural light, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a custom backsplash, and gorgeous flooring.
