The layout lives far beyond what you'd expect, with primary-style suites on both the main level and the lower leveleach featuring generous en-suites, large walk-in closets, and the kind of space and privacy that's hard to find. Downstairs, a large flex space adds even more versatilityideal as a media lounge, game room, or creative studio, and easily adaptable to your needssupported by an additional full bathroom and multiple walkouts that spill directly to the pool for a true resort-style rhythm. And when you want even more separation, the newer addition delivers.

A major remodel transformed the home over multiple years with thoughtful, high-impact improvements throughout.
