Outfitted with a wet bar and nearly 11’ ceiling heights, the parlor level is perfect for entertaining and feels extraordinarily grand. At the front of the house, a library with wood-paneled walls and a gas fireplace is currently being used as an additional informal living space but can serve as an excellent office space.
