The gourmet kitchen showcases a Wolf range, 60" built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator, oversized quartz island, and designer lighting. Upstairs, a versatile loft with owner-upgraded hardwood flooring (extending through the staircase and entire second level) offers flexible living space. The primary suite impresses with mountain views and a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub, dual vanities, and a large custom walk-in closet. Close to $200,000 in builder upgrades plus significant owner enhancements, including a fireplace and second-floor hardwood flooring.
