Toward the rear of the home,another enormous living room captivates with four dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light,highlighting the tray ceiling,gleaming and immaculate dark hardwood floors,and another wood-burning fireplace. An adjoining library,sitting room,or office with its own private entrance adds flexibility. Above this space,a charming loft bedroom offers a peaceful retreat ideal for rest and solitude.
