The kitchen features a large center island, quartzite countertops, upgraded appliances, separate refrigerator and freezer, two dishwashers, ice machine and beverage refrigerator. A separate scullery kitchen provides additional prep and storage space. What truly makes this home **The Retreat** is the way it opens to the outdoors.
