This classic home offers plenty of flexibility for the new owner, with beautifully proportioned rooms, a gracious open flow for entertaining, and excellent storage space. The home showcases gorgeous old world period details and grand scale and has a wonderful flow with the perfect separation between the formal entertaining and private living spaces.
