The design of this home takes full advantage of its unique location. The grand epoch-style architecture is a treat with wonderful detailing and a wood roof. Wooden gates open to the fenced and landscaped property, and the porte cochere leads to the entrance under a verandah with a panelled ceiling. The front door with a leaded glass fanlight opens to the center hall with one of two powder rooms and a broad stairway sweeping upstairs to the sun-filled arched window with a window seat. The living room has a fireplace, a bay window overlooking the park, and french doors to the front and to the side verandah, which is also off the formal dining room with a boxed bay window. The panelled library is in a quiet corner and there is an elevator. The heart of the house is the glorious country kitchen with a south-facing bay window in the eating area, a center island, handsome cabinetry, a butler's pantry and a wide archway to the family room with a fireplace, south and west exposures including french doors to a terrace, plus there is a large mudroom. Upstairs is the master suite with a sitting porch, a fireplace, fabulous dressing rooms/closets and a luxurious bathroom with an Ultra bathtub and a separate shower.
