This three bed, three-and-a-half-bath tri-level house is truly a modern palace. On the ground floor, you’ll find the living room, which comes equipped with a movie projector and screen, and a half bath. Also, one of the walls — the entire wall — is actually a door that folds open to give you inside-outside access to a beautiful patio with outdoor seating. The main level features an open-plan kitchen/living/dining space — and believe me, that kitchen is decked out — along with a bedroom and bathroom. The top floor is dedicated to two more bedrooms and bathrooms — and did I mention that all of the bedrooms’ baths are ensuite? No fighting over a single shower stall every morning!
