Inside, you will find beautifully preserved details, including brass locks, plaster walls, and hardwood oak floors. The grand staircase with heavy wood spindles sets a tone of timeless charm. Two traditional wood-burning fireplaces warm the living and family rooms, while the exquisite formal dining room is perfect for hosting your holiday gatherings.
