The meticulously maintained property showcases top-of-the-line construction, including cast stone floors, three Rumford fireplaces with gas starters, and a private elevator. The heart of the home is a custom kitchen, thoughtfully designed and adjoining a spacious family room that offers stunning views of the water.
