The custom centre staircase sets the tone for the entire interior as it rises as a sculptural statement to the second level, showcasing the scale and craftsmanship of the restoration.The kitchen and baths are fully rebuilt with custom cabinetry, stone surfaces, and premium fixtures. All electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, and mechanical systems are new. The lower level is a true walk-out, finished as a five-star private apartment overlooking the lake, offering full-height ceilings and direct outdoor access-ideal for guests, extended family, or professional use.The fully detached garage adds opportunity for the car enthusiast, with a lower garden room providing additional storage or a dedicated gardening workshop.The 3-bedroom plan blends original craftsmanship with modern engineering, eliminating the compromises typical of 19th-century homes.
