A richly paneled family room with stained glass and coffered ceiling offers an inviting gathering space. Recent upgrades are comprehensive, including a fully reimagined chef's kitchen with Thermador appliances, expanded primary bath and custom walk-in closet, and updates to four additional bathrooms. Additional improvements include new interior/exterior paint, restored fireplaces and chimneys, and a fully equipped home theater.
