Pocket doors allow for an open or intimate floor plan, while triple Niermann Weeks chandeliers enhance the space.

The second floor includes three spacious bedrooms with fireplaces, two full baths, and a large laundry room. The Owner’s Suite offers a luxurious bedroom with garden views, a marble fireplace, an elegant bath with a vessel tub and glass shower, and a breathtaking dressing room with a marble-topped island. An additional laundry room is adjacent.
The upper level features a finished space with exposed brick and historic Civil War-era graffiti. The lower level includes a second family room, a fitness area, a 1,600-bottle wine cellar, and a full bath.
