A picturesque circular fountain punctuates the delightful entrance walkway, lined in boxwoods. A graceful live oak also enhances the front yard. Gas lanterns flank the front door of and striking gray stone facade.

A lovely office, lacquered in a rich dark blue, is chic and timeless. Designer highlights include Urban Electric and Circa lighting, Waterworks fixtures, Farrow and Ball and Pintura Studio wall coverings, gorgeous custom cabinetry and Forbes and Lomax switches. The enormous lot of nearly three quarters of an acre is a rarity downtown and provides plenty of space for outdoor leisure and entertaining.
