The circular driveway arrives at the inviting entrance courtyard. Elegant carved half columns border the handsome front door under a leaded transom window. The grand center hall with a high ceiling has a magnificent curving, flying stairway up to a balcony under which an arched glass door opens to the romantic verandah and graceful curving terrace overlooking the lake. The spacious living room has a fireplace and three exposures, including a wide south-facing window bay and three sets of french doors to faux balconies. The gracious formal dining room has a tall bow window, twin glass cabinets and lovely chinoiserie detailing including elegant plasterwork in the ceiling. The generous library with a fireplace has rich African mahogany panelling, a bow window to the view and arched cabinetry. Recently completed, the sun-filled kitchen has a bay window seat in the eating area, white panelled cabinetry, an enchanting circular window, top-of-the-line appliances, a bar, a mudroom, access to the garages, and several steps up to a family or exercise room. There are two family rooms with fireplaces, one with a media center, the second with a wet bar. Upstairs are six bedrooms, six baths and a study - the master suite, with three exposures including a Romeo and Juliette balcony, has two lovely bathrooms, one with a steam shower, the other with a long bathtub (both have heated floors) and a large dressing room with a desk area plus there are many cedar closets and wonderful built-ins in all rooms. This house is the pinnacle of architectural design in proportion and detail with lovely brass hardware, solid and intricate plasterwork unattainable today, memorable floors and a feeling of solidity. This impressive house is very near the association playground with stunning views of the dramatic wide waterfall. It is the hard-to-find lifestyle close to town with walking and bicycling from the front door in a beautifully planted park with lovely homes.
