Property Description

A serene retreat sits atop a grove of trees in a lovely, private setting.

The first floor includes a step-down living room with high, beamed ceilings, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a stunning cook’s kitchen with large marble island, limestone floors and a wall of French doors opening to a leafy patio.
