The floor plan features a large living room with a fireplace, the paneled library with a fireplace, and a long gallery that opens to the dining room, kitchen, and family room. The primary bedroom is located on the first floor, and has two separate bathrooms. First floor quarters have a full bath and a side entrance is nearby. The second floor features a large game room with full bath, plus two guest bedrooms with a connecting bath. Above the garage is a guest apartment with full bath and kitchen.
