Published marketing describes a full bathroom renovation program serving the bedroom suites, main level and lower-level functions.
New bedroom suite
A main-level suite provides a separated accommodation option without requiring regular stair use between the primary living levels.
Dedicated office
A purpose-built office creates a defined work or study setting apart from the main gathering rooms and bedroom areas.
Wine, media, fitness and recreation functions

Inground pool with Baja shelf
