The home was originally well-constructed with character and fine materials. There are significant windows and vistas at every turn.The current owner/designer recently embarked on a extensive renovation (2013) to exacting standards. The result is many fine new upgrades and new sections of the home that echo the fine materials and craftmanship of the original home.
