The main house is 3,246 square feet with a large 1,280 SF finished lower level. there is a nice balance of quiet, intimate spaces & bold open spaces. The use of soaring ceilings in the foyer, family room & primary bedroom set the dramatic tone. There are 73 windows in this house - most over-sized or custom sizes.
