The kitchen has Smallbone finishes, a six-burner hooded range, a large Carrere marble center island with space for informal dining, twin-27-inch SubZeros and a 150-bottle wine refrigerator. Two steps down from the kitchen is a large informal dining room with herringbone wood floors and French doors leading onto an exquisite, European-inspired garden of stone and well-appointed plantings. The entire ground floor features radiant heat floors.

On the parlor floor a grand library/formal dining room with an antique French fireplace is perfectly positioned at the front of the building with high coffered ceilings and three tall windows to capture the Northern light. From the center landing, there is a wet-bar with sink and fridge, which is ideal for entertaining. The 17 x 25 living room contains an antique English fireplace and is flooded with light from the floor to ceiling windows and twin glass doors which open onto a large rear terrace overlooking the garden.
