When you enter the home, you are immediately entering the grand 14-foot foyer with staircase leading up to the living and dining areas with windows and sliders leading to the deck providing expansive water views. Balconies, sun decks, and numerous windows throughout provide spectacular view from almost every room, and the master suite opens to a private balcony providing an exceptional water view.
