The kitchen is a minimalist dream, featuring a Bertazzoni range, waterfall island of Brazilian quartzite, custom maple-finished cabinetry, and Gaggenau refrigerator. A microcosm of the home, the ocean-view master suite is voluminous yet intimate. The naturally illuminated master bathroom is punctuated by a freestanding tub and copiously spacious Bardolino marble shower. Two additional bedrooms open through French doors onto their own garden decks. All three bedrooms are accompanied by corresponding baths, each with heated bathroom floors and wall-mounted heated washlet toilets. Enjoy a comfortable media room with black cerused oak wet bar, and a generous three-car garage with modern workspace and copious storage. Steps from Shaws Cove, the outdoor shower is perfect for rinsing off after the beach. Perfect as a primary residence or second home. Ideally located in North Laguna.
