The versatile first floor offers a sophisticated living room enhanced by bautiful windows and a handsome fireplace, a bow-shaped family room with built-ins, impressive moldings and fireplace, and a banquet-size dining hall with an oversize fireplace and grand tile surround. Pocket doors in the living and family rooms ease shifts in mood and space, between intimate family events and large-scale entertaining. Adjacent to the family room ad dining hall, the kitchen offers Corian counters, Viking stove and a pretty, painted tile backsplash. There is also a lavatory on this floor. A thoroughly charming 972 sq ft one-bedroom apartment with private entrance at the garden level is set off by the original cast iron cook stove and lots of exposed brick.
