UPSTAIRS LIVING: • Four spacious bedrooms and two beautifully renovated marble bathrooms. • Owner’s suite with custom walk-in closet, dressing area, and spa-style bath with soaking tub, frameless shower, marble counters, and shuttered windows. • Dedicated stair access to a large attic with 10-ft ceilings and access to the original widow’s walk. LOWER LEVEL RETREAT: • Finished basement with exposed stone foundation, handcrafted paneling, wide-plank barnwood flooring, and recessed lighting. • Custom wet bar, gym room, full bathroom, discreet media closet, and large laundry with utility sink and storage. • Walk-up exit to backyard.
