The main entry of this home welcomes visitors on the North side. Its roof is supported by well-proportioned columns. As you step inside there is a receiving place with light provided by the sidelight windows. The space is defined by interior gateways with long views to the social spaces on the South side and the kitchen/office area on the West. The main gathering places are open to one another with an away room for music with a french door that provides light and noise separation. The formal separated dining room was replaced by an every day light filled space where all meals take place. The kitchen is well thought out for a family of four cooks. The main bedroom suite is located on the East on the main floor to provide easy access. Three additional bedrooms and a bathroom are located on the second floor.
