Once inside, you will see the grand two-story entrance hall with dual staircases to the upper level. There are two bridges that span the upper level of the foyer with square motif rails that echo the exterior copper ornaments. The formal living room has access to the rear courtyard and has an all brick wood burning fireplace. The library features shelving and built-in cabinetry and brick walls. The formal dining room has wood flooring, brick walls and access to the courtyard as well. The spacious kitchen comes with all appliances, including double wall ovens, built-in cooktop and has lots of counter space and a wet bar area and there is a corner breakfast nook with brick walls overlooking the rear yard. Also complementing this level is a very large office/den with access to the enclosed, lap pool with cathedral ceiling, tile flooring, recessed lighting and heat, as well as the laundry room and a powder room. Heading up either one of the dual staircases, or the spiral staircase, will take you to the second level with a huge master ensuite with a brick, wood burning fireplace, a sitting area, a very spacious dressing room with custom built-in cabinets and a master bath with a gorgeous wall of windows, a double vanity and glass surround shower stall with an extra vanity for storage.
