The dining room boasts a boxed beam ceiling, with intricate woodwork, moldings, and period lighting throughout. Nine stained-glass windows, five ornamental fireplaces, and high-efficiency upgrades from 2023 add historic charm and modern comfort. The primary en suite features marble, custom cabinetry, and Rohl hardware, while first-floor baths have similar high-end finishes.
