Adjacent, the elegant dining room features a large table perfectly positioned before expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, capturing panoramic bay views.

Down the hall, discover three well-appointed bedrooms: a bright and airy king room, a versatile room with a king bed and a full-over-full bunk bed, and a tranquil retreat with three queen beds and enchanting patio views.
