A total of five sets of French doors throughout the lower level alone solidify the indoor to outdoor atmosphere, with backyard access available from the living room, dining room, family room and kitchen. Four stately pillars outline the living room with granite facing fireplace, and the dining room with chic chandelier and two sets of French doors. The gorgeous open concept kitchen offers a large center island with bar seating and sink, ornate marble counters which continue to the butler’s pantry, subway tiling, and a La Cornue oven. Banquette seating provides a more casual dining option, complete with artistic wrought iron chandelier, while the family room just off the kitchen offers a second granite fireplace, and access to the back patio. A large bedroom with walk-in closet and private access to a guest bathroom, as well as an additional laundry room complete this first floor.
