This spacious south-facing two bedroom, two bath home features European white oak flooring throughout, separate private rooftop cabana and a stunning custom kitchen showcasing Bardiglio marble countertop and matching backsplash paired beautifully with super-matte custom Italian cabinetry by Rifra. The integrated Bosch refrigerator blends seamlessly into the background, while the stained oak wood veneer island with oversized breakfast bar serves as an ideal gathering spot that can comfortably accommodate five stools. Completed with a stainless steel Bosch appliance suite including cooktop, oven, paneled dishwasher, and microwave drawer as well as in-unit Bosch washer/dryer.
The exquisite bathrooms feature Driftwood Grey marble floors paired with Bianco Dolomite marble walls and a matt white lacquer vanity with stained oak veneer.
