The grand living room with vaulted open-beam ceiling and dramatic chandelier boasts a massive wood-burning fireplace with copper hood and enormous brick surround, an incredible wall of windows and rich hardwood floors. The spacious, banquet-size dining room with vaulted open-beam ceiling, sophisticated chandelier, and tremendous built-in side-board with abundant storage is perfect for entertaining!
