The formal dining room boasts original stenciled wood-beamed ceiling, a 1920s Italian Neoclassical carved giltwood and iron 18 light chandelier, and dramatic views of downtown and the hills beyond. Christopher Peacock designed kitchen with white oak cabinetry, proprietary nickel hardware, custom pewter hood, and an integrated butcher block. 60" Bluestar platinum series ten burner range, Subzero refrigerators, refrigerator/freezer drawers, under-counter beverage refrigerator, and ice maker. The butler pantry has a custom marble sink, drying board, and nickel wire mesh cabinet fronts. Accordion windows provide easy pass-through of food for outdoor dining on the oversized patio.
