Pocket doors lead you to a handsome wood-paneled library with custom built cabinetry. Clad in exquisitely Italian Chinoiserie wallpaper, the formal dining room features beautifully-coffered ceilings and gorgeous flooring. A crisp, discreetly placed powder room rounds out the entertaining spaces.

A large laundry room features oversized LG W/D. A fourth bedroom could be used as staff quarters or a nursery and sits adjacent to a full bathroom with a large shower.
