The primary suite is an oasis of tranquility, featuring a fireplace and a seating area perfect for relaxing. Enjoy the massive view from all angles! The adjoining bathroom is equally lavish with custom cabinetry, elegant freestanding tub, walk-in shower, and massive walk-in closet that feels like a private dressing room. The other guest suite is spacious. For outdoor living, there’s the large, private balcony area, perfect for al fresco dining while enjoying the expansive views. The community itself is a resort within a resort, offering a wide array of amenities. Join a cycling class, enjoy the charming tea and coffee shop, a retail shop, and casual dining. The expansive association pool and deck, meeting rooms, and bbq areas are perfect for relaxing or socializing with friends and neighbors. The gym is enormous, and includes a steam room. Enjoy playing billiards or spending time in the Social Club. Homeowners enjoy a private building concierge available to assist with any need.
