Home Brick & Stone

After coming off of the covered entry, you enter a formal foyer with a stairway and then a formal dining room to the right.

To the left there is a small hall that leads to a study or guest suite with a walk–in closet and a full bath. The full bath has a secondary door for direct access from the foyer. A pair of glazed doors leads to the rear terrace. This entire section of the house might work perfectly for an aging parent.

A large opening in the foyer leads to a gathering room thatis open to the kitchen and the family dining area. A large fireplace is centered on the wall to your left, flanked by built–ins on either side. Windows and a pair of glazed doors look out to the rear terrace, which extends the living space.

The kitchen has a raised eating counter that divides it from the dining area and the gathering space, and a center work island with a prep sink. A butler's vestibule with cabinets is a functional transitional space between the kitchen and dining room. From the informal dining area, a door opens into a four seasons room, which has screens on all three sides, and a fireplace in one corner to keep the room warm on cooler days and nights. From the kitchen, a rear hall leads to a walk–in pantry, a small home office, a powder room, and a three–car garage. The hall has room for a seat and built–ins/lockers, making it an ideal mudroom.

On the other side of the balcony a hallway leads to two more bedrooms that each have their own walk–in closets and full bathrooms. The bath next to Bedroom 2 can also be accessed from the bonus room above the garage.
