Cathedral ceilings, beams, floor to ceiling fireplace, stained glass window and leaded windows, wide board ash hardwood floors, an interior balcony with custom desk area, tiled kitchen counters, flooded with light from floor to ceiling and beautiful views from every oversized window throughout this beautifully designed home.
