There are a total of five bedrooms and four full and two half bathrooms that embody this picture-perfect property. The original structure blends seamlessly into the new construction. Pristine quarter sawn white oak flooring throughout is just the beginning. Natural sunlight drenches this envious floorplan thanks to endless "walls of windows."
