The open kitchen has an eat-in peninsula, custom Opal Quartz countertops, and a suite of deluxe appliances. All bedrooms have oversized California closets, and the master bedroom’s en-suite bath features a linen closet, dual vanity sink, walk-in steam shower, and deep soaking tub. Other luxurious features include radiant heated floors in all bathrooms, in-unit GE washer/dryer, and motorized Hunter Douglas shades on windows.”
