Description

A warm inviting mid century - built originally by the craftsmen owners - has many unique touches. An intimate but comfortable open public space, an eminently workable kitchen with zinc cabinets, lovely full cut beech floors, views and views, lots of decks for outdoor-ing. A remodel in the 80's gave rise to a full dance studio with a special floor construction and finish along with overhead trusses strong enough for aerial work - a space to bring out the creative muse - and maybe bring your trapeze.A warm inviting mid century - built originally by the craftsmen owners - has many unique touches.
