Inside, a gracious entrance hall sets the tone for beautifully proportioned living spaces designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living. Along the rear of the home, French doors and floor-to-ceiling windows capture sweeping water views, creating a seamless connection between the interiors and the picturesque grounds beyond.
