The quintessential white picket fence with capitals topped posts gracefully surrounds the front yard to complete the perfect picture of elegance. Interior Lay Out: Throughout the restorations and renovations the interior of this home has, for the most part, retained its authentic original layout. Below is detailed description by floor. Downstairs – right side (as you face the house): A classic center hall design lends for the impressive hard wood entrance hall that leads all the way to the back of the house. The original wide wooden banister staircase is intricately carved, and anchors the center point of the home. Stately rooms with 12- foot ceilings line both sides of the house. The front right side of the first floor holds a large parlor / conversation room that gently flows via a mid-point archway into the spacious living / media room. These rooms are beautifully furnished and artfully decorated with up-scale fine furniture, art work and lovely window coverings.

The living room has a large armoire that serves as the TV / entertainment center. The last room on the right is the beautifully renovated modern kitchen. Complete with granite counter tops, cook’s island, and beautiful wooden dining table, this luxurious kitchen has French doors that lead to the pool and deck area. The layout is ideal for entertaining. The wooden table has the added feature of expanding to seat your group for sit-down meals.

Furnished with comfortable seating, a writing desk, and a wall of bookshelves, this beautiful has the added feature of a delightful Murphy bed that makes this room a delightful sixth bedroom in the home.
