Elegant and substantial, this home offers 4160sf on the first and second floor with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. One former bedroom is used as the primary closet. An additional finished lower living level adds an additional 1664sf, an exterior entrance, a full kitchen, and a sauna and laundry. The private backyard and carriage house completes the lot.
