Great Hall
The great hall was inspired by the great center halls of shingle style houses — generous in size and timeless in beauty. The center hall connects the major rooms on the first floor: the broad living room, the octagonal dining room and the cubic stair hall.

Living Room
Exemplifying nautical style, the broad living room is adorned with traditional oil paintings of seaward ships. Tranquil shades of blue are evidenced throughout — from the relaxed furniture to the faux-painted walls.
