Guests are welcomed in the expansive reception hall served by a bar area and formal powder room. French doors lead directly ahead into the grandly proportioned living room which showcases an elegant fireplace and enthralling lakeside scenery through three sets of sunlit French doors opening to the south terrace. Entered from the living room or the hall, the stately library hosts another fireplace set into the handsome oak wainscoting below the strapwork plaster ceiling embellished in a fleur-de-lys motif. Next to the library is a private office with its own powder room. Flowing off the reception hall, the banquet-sized formal dining room can easily seat 60 guests in a wonderful garden-like atmosphere with exquisite hand-painted Gracie wallpaper, a marble fireplace, and an elaborate crystal chandelier. French doors expand this bright, airy space for alfresco dining on the wide lakeside terrace framed by pillared porches. The dining room is served by a room-sized butler’s pantry complete with built-in china/crystal storage, refrigerator, large wine cooler, dishwasher, and sink. The connecting main kitchen features state-of-the-art appliances complemented by beautiful custom cabinetry replicating the original design. A massive open fireplace divides the inviting breakfast room.
