A Governor's drive welcomes you to this expansive Fox Chapel estate with 5 bedrooms, 5 full baths and 2 half baths. The front door opens to reveal a two-story foyer with a grand central stair. Beautiful pegged and parquet hardwood flooring is found throughout most of the main level. Crown molding, chair rail and picture frame wainscoting encircle the formal living room, recessed lights shine down into the adjacent dining room. Decorative columns show the way to a sunken marble-floored sun room, whose walls of windows frame attractive views of your picturesque surroundings. Granite counters provide ample workspace in the kitchen, also home to high end stainless steel appliances, a brick alcove with built in cooktop, and a sunlit breakfast nook. Rustic wooden beams cross above the inviting family room, which is centered on a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. The first floor is also home to a dignified den with paneled walls and built-in shelves surrounding another cozy fireplace.
