Remodeled Classic French Normandy with Expanded Luxury

A tremendous kitchen and family room combination unfolds at the rear of the home, while upstairs boasts a sumptuous master suite with two full baths. Hardwood floors throughout, a focal-point fireplace in the grand living room, detailed ceiling moldings accented with gold leaf in the dining room, and a classic turret lined with leaded-glass windows are all reminders of the home’s vintage appeal.

Granite slab counters include a large island with breakfast bar seating. Adding to the amenities is a wet bar, two built-in computer stations, a spacious casual dining area, plus a fireplace beneath media wiring and surround sound speakers.
