FIRST FLOOR: The solid wood door with distinctive brass fixtures opens into the bright and spacious Center Hall (11?x10?) with natural light streaming in from the beautiful front window. The antique brick floor and brass and wrought iron fixtures are characteristic of Walter Off homes and immediately determine the style that is consistent throughout the house. A coat closet and Powder Room complete the Center Hall. A large archway opens into the lovely formal Living Room (27?3?x14?10?) that features large windows, two with window seats, that are flanked by beautiful lighted display shelves and cabinets. The lovely fireplace features a slate hearth and slate surround and a carved mantle with intricate decorative moldings. Crown molding and hardwood floors are seen in the Living Room and continue throughout the home. A door at the rear wall of the Living Room leads to the indoor Pool Room , while a second door opens into the cozy Family Room. The Family Room (13?x12?) has a rustic look with beamed ceiling, dark rustic paneling and book shelves on one wall and a brick fireplace with natural wood mantle. This room opens into the Sunroom that extends from the Pool Room across the entire back of the house. The Family Room leads back to the Center Hall and the large archway into the formal Dining Room (14?10?x14?2?). This beautiful room features hardwood floors, wainscoting on all sides and two corner china cabinets, and provide an entrance to the Kitchen and Breakfast Room. The updated Rutt Kitchen (15?x12?2?) is bright and cheerful and offers cherry cabinets, some with glass doors, corian counters, a large island with double stainless sinks and disposal, Kitchen Aide Dishwasher and microwave/convection oven, Jenn-Aire range with conventional and convection capabilities, Sub-Zero refrigerator and decorative tile backsplash. The Kitchen steps down to the Breakfast Room (13?11?x12?2?) and features a wood stove, a door to the attached garage and another door to the covered walkway that leads to the detached garage. French doors open from the Kitchen into the Sunroom (30?x9?7?). This delightful room is made entirely of glass walls and ceiling with natural wood supports, and features an antique brick floor, a wet bar, electric baseboard heat and fans that blow the warmed sunroom air into the second floor. The sunroom also leads to the Pool Room (19?3?x16?9?) that houses a beautiful ?Endless? Pool. This room was designed by Peter Bachelor and blends beautifully with the style and architecture of the house. With large windows on three sides, bluestone floor and 9? bead board ceiling with recessed lighting, this room is a delightful retreat. The ?Endless? pool is controlled and covered, but can easily be opened and turned on to create a continuously flowing current. There is a separate heat pump for heat and air conditioning in this room.
SECOND FLOOR: The turned staircase leads to the second floor where the same quality materials are evident. Hardwood floors and solid wooden doors with wrought iron fixtures are consistent even on the upper floor, and there is ample closet and storage space that is unusual for Walter Off homes. The beautiful Master Bedroom (23?x15?1?) features crown mold and chair rail, and double windows overlooking the backyard. Adjacent to the Master Bedroom is a Dressing Room with built-in shelving, a spacious walk-in closet and an updated Master Bath with white ceramic tile, tub and stall shower, pedestal sink and updated fixtures.

The third Bedroom (14?5?x11?10?) also opens to the updated Hall Bath that features ceramic tile floor, white tile walls, tub and shower, and updated fixtures.
The fourth Bedroom (12?10?x12?7?) and the fifth bedroom (an irregular shape that is 18?5?x20?3? at the widest point) share a connecting Bath that has also been updated with new fixtures and white tile. This room currently serves as the Office, and has several closets and dormer windows.
