The primary bath, inspired by the finest five-star spas in the world, is clad in white marble to complement WaterWorks fixtures, a freestanding soaking tub, and separate walk-in shower oriented to overlook the treetops. A custom walk-in California Closet completes the space and is one of several in the home. Two additional bedroom suites are amply proportioned, each featuring marble baths. Completing the level is a private office with a gas fireplace and Cathedral views. The finished third level is a residence in and of itself. Expansive and ethereal, with light flooding in from dormers and skylights, there is a fourth bedroom suite with a custom Poliform designer closet and a substantial bonus room lined with custom built-in seating and sleeping nooks overlooking the Cathedral. Large game and recreation rooms facilitate entertaining in the limestone-tiled lower level and have another conveniently adjacent full bath. A theater space with an 80-inch TV affords the ultimate in entertainment. Throughout the home, state-of-the-art systems ensure the security and comfort of all occupants.
