Step into a private, serene space that envelops you with
soothing sounds of water, visual sensations of color and
texture. The mature garden offers many unexpected delights
for the experienced gardener or casual visitor including
specimen Japanese maples, exotic bamboos, intimate dining
areas.
Open the front door and enjoy the bamboo floors, handsome
tropical mahogany mantled fireplace and matching beamed ceiling
with skylight. Your eye travels to the dining room with French
doors. The quiet elegance continues in the kitchen, with
distressed concrete tile floors, wonderful cabinetry, a DCS
commercial grade high-heat five burner range, Fisher-Paykel
double drawer dishwasher, GE Monogram side-by-side stainless
steel refrigerator. Step into the attached garage that has
been converted to a laundry area with Bosch front-loading
washer and dryer and built-in double desk office.
For more
delights head over to the bathroom—a room you may never want
to leave with heated floors, Japanese-style soaking tub,
large glass-enclosed shower with multiple water sprays, heated
mirror cabinet, two skylights, impeccably installed Bisazza
glass and Terrazo tiled walls and floor. Both bedrooms have
large closets and dual-paned windows with custom-designed
contemporary Shoji screen closet doors and window coverings.
This tranquil island is in the up-and-coming Left Bank neighborhood
which features Caffé Trieste, Sea Salt Restaurant,
Juniper Tree and Omega Salvage.
