an English Manor home with its enormous
proportions and detailing. Measuring over 28 feet in length , it has the original 18th century (considered "ancient timbers") , enormous wood burning fireplace & mantle, and soaring 12 foot ceilings. And Good news, There's plenty of space for a huge dining table. The buildings across the street are low rise so your view is Carlton Avenue townhouses and the sky.

The stair case to the lower level is well designed and a well done example of beautiful millwork and cabinetry making it easy to walk down and very wide.
