The first floor flows seamlessly with 10' ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, and generously proportioned rooms. The marble floored foyer opens to the living room, where visitors get their first sight of the breathtaking views and are perhaps offered a drink from the concealed bar. A formal dining room and a mahogany paneled den are on either side of the living room, all three with access to a bluestone terrace that spans the length of the house. A coffered-ceilinged kitchen and family room have counter seating, a separate dining area, and ample room for casual gatherings.
