Upstairs, the primary suite boasts vaulted ceilings owing to the mansard roof and features luxurious amenities such as sumptuous separate baths and corresponding dressing rooms. Also found on this level are large secondary bedrooms, their own equally luxurious baths, a private fitness center with a built-in sauna, and a high-ceilinged office.
