The heart of the home features a chef's kitchen with a Sub-Zero fridge and Bosch dishwasher with views to the garden from the sink and a convenient breakfast bar for meals on the run. The current homeowners say that this is the most functional kitchen they have ever had! The adjacent family room enjoys vaulted ceilings, skylights, a wet bar and a cozy gas lit fireplace. The spacious dining room accommodates a very large table with built-in cabinetry for buffet style serving.
