Inside, you'll find ample space with 4835 sq. 5 spacious bedrooms, 4.5 baths, a dramatic oversized red entry door, a striking floating staircase, and an impressive domed-ceiling family room, reading room, formal dining room, large kitchen with 2 Refrigerators and plenty of cabinet space, all designed to capture spectacular panoramic bay views. Original architectural details and generous living spaces provide the perfect foundation for a stunning renovation. The beautifully wooded and landscaped grounds feature a swimming pool, a circular drive with a covered porte-cochre, Generac, and a detached garage that has been converted into a guest house with 1250 sq ft complete with central A/C and a full bath, offering flexible space for guests, extended family, or a private studio.
