The main house, comprised of 5 bedrooms, 5 full, and one half bathrooms, offers grand scale public spaces with seamless indoor/outdoor living enjoyed from every room in the home.

Tam views are enjoyed throughout. The residence is ideally located just a few blocks from the award-winning K-8th grade Ross School, the Ross Common, and in very close proximity to the vast trail network accessed through Mt.
