Thoughtfully preserved, the home maintains its historic integrity while incorporating contemporary features to meet today’s needs. The grand foyer, with a sweeping staircase, leads to a series of light-filled, spacious rooms that retain their original character. A beautifully designed vestibule, featuring a marble floor, leaded glass sidelights, and an internal valet door, adds a touch of elegance to the entry. The formal living spaces include a living room with built-in bookcases, a study featuring an original safe, and a dining room adorned with a ceiling painting by Italian artist Cesare Maccari. The sunroom, complete with a limestone fireplace, thermal pane windows, and original porcelain tile floors, offers a comfortable retreat within the home.
