Restored to the finest detail included an original antique butler's pantry, cold pantry, gleaming hardwood floors and recently skim coated plaster and painted walls. The kitchen is a real cooks dream! Period cabinets with high end 6 burner gas stove, copper hood fan, farm sink and antique fixtures, warming oven, pot filler and Soap Stone Counters! The second floor boasts a landing sitting area, a guest bedroom with access to the back roof top patio, a separate "sewing room", a built-in linen cabinet, a massive main bath with separate soaking tub and shower, a large master suite with tons of closets and private bath!
