The original wood floors were restored by a true craftsman. A formal entry leads to the ocean/island view living room and the fireplace has some Batchelder tiles. From there, elegant glass doors take you to a formal dining room that invites you to imagine the family gatherings of previous generations. Original light fixtures enhance several rooms. The kitchen is the heart of the home with ocean/island views, built in seating, room for a large dining table, trey ceiling with skylights, Satillo tile floors, plenty of cabinets, double oven, island with a prep sink and griddle. Two of the bedrooms are in the main house area. One is enhanced with double opening domed windows; the other a master suite with a trey ceiling with skylights and a spacious bath which offers an atrium view from the jetted sunken tub and Satillo tile floors. A second bath retained all its original charm from the still-intact honeycomb floors to the pink 1929 era tile work. Speakers are placed throughout the house with rooms having individual volume control. Through an adorable small library, enter the southern wing of the property. With a separate entrance, three-quarter bath, kitchen, and living room down and 2 bedrooms and one full bath up, this can serve as its current use, a family compound, or for extended family, caregiver/nanny quarters, guest house, or income property.
