The original Schaefer Residence features generous room proportions, with all three bedrooms on the same level, including a spacious primary suite that opens to the original enclosed sun porch. The expansive living room adjoins a family room, once used as a library, while the formal dining room and impressive foyer-originally called the Reception Hall-reflect the gracious scale of the home. Much of the original period detail remains, including white oak hardwood floors throughout, wood casement windows, crown moldings, a wide central staircase with wooden balustrades, built-ins, and an ornate fireplace with a wood surround.
