From the gallery one can see through the formal dining room and kitchen to the tranquil planted garden. Off the gallery is the perfectly done powder room with Carerra marble floors. The dining room is large enough for grand parties but also warm and inviting. Off the dining room through antique glass paned doors sourced in France is the fabulous eat in kitchen. White hand painted shaker cabinets provide ample and useful storage, while the center island was created from an antique buffet from France.
