Schaefer, the home stands as a testament to enduring craftsmanship. A breathtaking foyer sets the tone. The sweeping staircase framed by rich, original woodwork is light filled. A private library drenched in emerald green offers a quiet retreat, while the formal living room—lined with new wood arched windows & centered on a stately marble fireplace, invites gathering & conversation. The expansive kitchen is both functional & beautiful with custom inset cabinetry, soapstone countertops, Pewabic tilework, and a farmhouse sink paired with antique lacquered brass fixtures and premium appliances.
