To the left of the foyer, pocket doors reveal an exquisite sitting room with a fireplace and an exceptionally grand dining room featuring chic contemporary lighting and a cozy alcove perfect for after-dinner drinks. A butler's pantry leads from the dining room to the magazine-worthy kitchen, where soft-close custom cabinetry is topped with beautiful gray granite and arabesque tile backsplashes. Chefs will love the fleet of upscale stainless steel appliances, including a vented six-burner Wolf cooktop, plus two wall ovens and two dishwashers by Bosch.
