Beautifully Renovated Two-Bedroom Residence with Southern Exposure and Exceptional Finishes Meticulously designed, this recently renovated, stunning two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence offers a sophisticated blend of timeless elegance, modern luxury, and everyday functionality. Bathed in natural light from its southern exposure, the home features a generously proportioned living space, beautiful hardwood floors throughout, and a thoughtfully designed layout that maximizes both space and comfort.

At the heart of the residence is a beautifully appointed and spacious kitchen featuring striking Brazilian Cote d'Azur quartzite countertops with a leathered finish, a Fisher & Paykel range, a paneled Bosch refrigerator, Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawers, and a wine refrigerator. A separate butler's pantry and dedicated coffee bar add an additional layer of convenience and sophistication, making the space equally suited for everyday living and entertaining. Both bathrooms have been elegantly finished with Kohler Purist fixtures, including a Restoration Hardware vanity in the primary bathroom and a Pottery Barn vanity in the secondary bathroom.
