The property retains many of its original features creating a sense of timeless elegance and charm. High ceilings, ceiling coving, and classic fireplaces are just a few of the architectural details that lend character and sophistication to the space, and these combined with spacious rooms make this home truly special.

Granite steps lead up to the hall door opening into a welcoming reception hall with high ceilings.
