All is complete with the ultimate custom-designed closet with built-ins. e balance of the main house includes a guest bedroom suite and main living areas designed with an open floor plan. One instantly envisions a chic dinner party " " This home is meant for someone who has amazing taste in architecture. - Greg Geilman, The DOMO Group RE/MAX Estate Properties
