Description
The charming, book-lined formal library opens into the living room and is flooded with southern sunlight. A magnificent formal dining room, off the foyer, has northern exposures and incredible wall space for art.
A private hall off the foyer leads to a grand primary bedroom suite with a dressing room, an en-suite bath and sunny southern exposures.
Off a separate 30-foot hallway there are three additional generously-sized bedrooms, all with en-suite baths. There is a huge eat in kitchen with professional appliances. Perhaps the most appealing aspect of the layout is the access from the main bedroom hall onto the huge back space that can be reconfigured in a multitude of ways.
What is currently used as a large suite of maids and laundry rooms can be transformed into at least two more bedrooms with baths, a playroom, a media room, etc.
