Description
This home is rich in history, originally built and enjoyed by William D. Howland for many years, and later be used by the Red Cross. It was bought and partly restored for use as a recovery house, with a potential for 32 beds. However, it can be used again as a single-family and brought back to its former grandeur that would rival those in Newport. The foyer is roughly 20x16, and while grand in scale, the floor plan is usable for modern living. The home features many unique details such as tiled fireplaces, marble sinks, two butler's pantries (one also doubles as a wet bar), and leaded glass windows. The living area is spread over three levels that include a total of 6 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a billiard room, and multiple walk-in storage rooms. There is more than enough space for an Au Pair, extended family, or live-in staff on the 3rd level. The home is located on a nice size corner lot with an elevated patio in the tree lined West End neighborhood, with similar architecture.
