With four spacious bedrooms and 4.5 beautifully appointed bathrooms, the home offers ample space for relaxation and entertaining. Zoned heating and cooling systems ensure year-round comfort, while original architectural details—like five fireplaces, high ceilings and hardwood floors—add timeless charm.
