- Interior appointments include nine- to 12-foot ceilings, hardwood floors and floor-to-ceiling windows across an open living and dining area, as well as stone kitchen counters and stainless steel appliances along the back wall.
- Filling out the second floor are a den and two bedrooms, including a master with one of two bathrooms.
- Monthly condominium fees of $586 pay for the upkeep of amenities, such as guest suites, an outdoor pool, fitness, media and party rooms.
