Tucked away for privacy, the main-level primary suite features a generous walk-in closet with built-in organizers and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. A dedicated exercise space within the partially converted garage is also conveniently accessible from the main floor, and delivers plenty of room for weights, machines, cardio equipment, or aerial silks.
