CLEARANCE SALE

of the developers last units!

• 9 ft ceilings
• Marble or granite in the vestibule
• Coffered ceilings with crown mouldings in vestibule and living area
• Kitchen counter top with 1 ¼ solid granite bevelled edge
• Master bathroom/marble tile floor & shower surround.
• 24 hour security guard with video recorded surveillance.
