In addition to the main house there is a carriage house with parking for 4 cars and an apartment for guest quarters, family, or staff. The 1.44 acre grounds are manicured with mature plantings. The main house is introduced by a gracious entry with handsome flooring that gives way to a library, a formal LR, DR, a fireplaced family room, an office, and sunroom.
