Two offices, an upper-level gym, a billiards room, and a second breakfast sunroom complete the home''s appeal. Designed for grand-scale entertaining, the main floor connects seamlessly to a large outdoor sandstone patio with a wood-burning fireplace, an ideal setting for hosting dinner parties. The pièce de résistance is the designer lap pool, showcasing a mosaic of strategically placed glass tiles creating a breathtaking visual display.
