Floor to ceiling windows allow maximum light, and the dining room has a large picture window for and unobstructed view of the river. The architectural surround of the fireplace is gorgeous. The hidden wet bar with an old fashioned serving refrigerator is reminiscent of �speak easy� days gone by. Built-in bookcases and shelving, surrounded by fluted crown and decorative moldings, create a charming d�cor. Even the beveled glass swing door to the kitchen is in keeping with the gracious warmth this home has to offer. The oversized kitchen boasts the natural beauty of Maple cabinets, real wood butcher block counters, hardwood floors and an eating area to accommodate any size family or gathering.

In keeping with the character and period of this home there is a separate �wrapping� room. Originally designed and used to store and wrap gifts.
