The house boasts large windows, detailed millwork, and high ceilings with natural light flooding the home. A spectacular staircase three stories high soars above original Stained Glass Windows and a Pipe Organ fa-cade! This Grand and Lofty staircase is the focal point of the house. With over 8,600 square feet of living space this home provides endless possibilities and flexibility! A rented 2nd floor two bedroom apartment in the Coach house is a great income bonus.
