Inside you're greeted by large rooms that create bright, sunlit spaces for entertaining or relaxing. The main house is sprawling with meandering whitewashed corridors lined with hunting trophies and European art.

The ground floor concludes with a single twin in the "maid's room", full bathroom, half bathroom and billiards room, which can also double as a table tennis room.

Upstairs it is easy to get lost in the maze of interconnected bedrooms and bathrooms. The second floor has a total of three queen bedrooms and one bedroom with two twins. Including the master bedroom and maid's room on the ground floor, this brings the total to six bedrooms sleeping eleven guests.

There are multiple outdoor spaces to relax, including the pergola with its own dining area and built-in charcoal grill. You'll see historic stone walls characteristic of the northeast crisscrossing the grounds - follow these until you see the private swimming lake with docks and boats for your enjoyment during the summer season.
