Spanning over 5,200 square feet and featuring ten bedrooms, this property is a vacationer’s dream—evidenced by its impressive rental income. The elegant upper level is designed to impress with expansive views, a beautifully appointed gathering area, and refined dining spaces. The adjacent open-concept kitchen is a chef’s paradise, spacious enough for multiple cooks to create culinary masterpieces. Equipped with twin dishwashers, a wet bar, and a disposal, all surrounded by stunning granite countertops, this kitchen is ready for anything. The raised bar overlooking the kitchen offers, yet another, space to congregate. The upper level is also home to two en suites, both featuring spacious baths with jetted garden tubs, showers and impressive tile work. Dining al fresco on the third level deck is popular due to the expansive decks with East and West exposure. So, you can enjoy coffee with the sunrise and sip bubbly as the sun sets! After taking the private elevator to the second floor, you will find six more bedrooms, each fitted for ultimate comfort. Flat screen televisions grace every room and numerous balconies provide private reading areas. Level 2 also showcases expansive East facing decks and the enormous front porch. As you head down the grand staircase, you are welcomed into an extensive game room equipped with a regulation size pool table.
