A welcoming foyer introduces elegant formal living spaces highlighted by rich detailing, refined millwork, and beautifully proportioned rooms designed for both intimate living and large-scale entertaining. The formal living room is anchored by a striking marble fireplace, intricate crown molding, and a massive bay window overlooking the front gardens, while the formal dining room exudes warmth and tradition with raised paneled wainscoting and an inviting setting for memorable gatherings. The expansive family room is a true showpiece, featuring handsome wood paneling, a built-in entertainment center with desk, and views of both the rear grounds and the private atrium. The kitchen is filled with character and functionality, offering solid oak cabinetry, peg-and-plank wood flooring, kitchen aid refrigerator/freezer, Thermador oven, walk-in pantry, and a cheerful breakfast area wrapped in glass. The thoughtfully designed floor plan also includes generous bedroom suites, multiple baths, abundant storage, and an attached 3-car garage. The guest house provides ideal flexibility for extended family, guests, office, or creative use, complete with its own living area, stone fireplace, kitchenette, bath, and bedroom space.
