The adjoining formal dining room has a dramatic double-height ceiling that opens to the level above, allowing sunlight to pour in and create an airy, inviting atmosphere. Just beyond, a beautifully landscaped private garden provides a peaceful retreat for outdoor dining. The second floor is designed for both relaxation and entertaining, offering a sophisticated library and living area lined with custom bookshelves and anchored by oversized south-facing windows. French doors open to a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden, while the open layout above the dining room enhances the home's sense of volume and connection.
