Renovated in 2016, features include 10 bedrooms, 5 1/2 baths, soaring 11'/10'/9' ceilings, original hardwood floors, decorative plaster ceilings, marble fireplaces, copper plumbing supply lines, a center-island chef's kitchen with Wolf appliances and Statuario marble countertops, updated 400-amp electrical service, Unico central air (1st & 2nd floors), efficient radiator heat, two covered terraces, rear deck, walk-in vault, partial basement (crawl space beneath kitchen) with expansion potential, and a spacious two-car garage plus flex spot.
