What's special

This is the 1000 character spot Realtors get to describe a home. Many of us use cheesy, cliche phrases like, "amazing view," etc. But in my last 10 years in real estate, I've never had a listing like this and find it hard to explain. The photos do not paint the picture. You'll tell your friends about the interior of this home. It really must be seen in person. All the wood you see in this home is hand-carved. The floor is hand-laid porcelain. The front door was hand-made, as were the 25' tall curtains on either side of the grand entrance. The 2nd level is totally separated with it's own entrance for occupants who want their own space. Literally, like a house inside a house. The lower level has an art studio and HUGE workshop. The two bedrooms on the rooftop level are over 30x20 feet, each with their own bath and private rooftop terrace. AMAZING view!
