This home is a rare find, combining pre-war detail with modern conveniences. Upon entering, an elegant foyer leads to the open living/dining space that boasts high (approx. 10 -foot) beamed ceilings and an oversized eastern facing Thermopane window. The living quarters are set back from the rest of the home, offering a serene retreat.
