Spanning three levels, the floor plan yet feels intimate with exceptionally light and bright spaces including folding glass doors in the family room/kitchen that open to the rear grounds for indoor/outdoor living. An impeccable array of details at every turn include natural stone and tile, gorgeous hardwood floors, beadboard wainscot, sconce lighting and fine carpet on the lower level that unify the home.
