The magnificent master suite is complete with imported French oak flooring (used throughout the home), a freestanding fireplace, high vaulted thatched ceilings, and expansive country views, even from the large shower and freestanding copper bath in the bathroom and the large outdoor wrap around balcony that adjoins the rim flow pool deck.
