There are Greek Revivals and then there are GREEK REVIVALS. This being the latter. The front columns alone are worthy of a design award. The eyebrow windows, the corner mouldings and trim work are straight from the age of enlightened craftsmanship. The grounds are laid out with a perfect mix of private settings and gathering spaces. The barns, one of which houses a guest house / studio blend into the environment while defining their purpose. The pool, patio and firepit perfect for parties. The pond reflects willows and maples and pure blue sky. Inside is a study in details - hand carved door and window mouldings, floors glowing rich and warm, swirling blown glass in the windows a showcase in the deftness of hand tools and ability. The back entrance, glassed in for protection, makes a sweet mud room. The galley kitchen, gourmetly appointed, flows to the eating area or the dining room or outside. The family room, with it's exposed fireplace, sanctuary. The formal living room a place for conversation. The master suite is both masterly and sweet. The fixtures are thoroughly modern. The feeling is thoroughly historic.
