Inside, the expansive living room spans the full width of the home and is anchored by a gorgeous wood-burning fireplace with a custom mantle designed to complement the home's stunning woodwork and intricate floor inlay.

Original hardwood floors extend throughout the first and second levels, featuring detailed inlay and decorative corner blocks.
