The entire cottage – except for the bathrooms and kitchen – are floored with 100-year-old gleaming hardwood planks, some in artful geometric patterns. French doors between living/dining/kitchen allow rooms ultimate flexibility – close and open them to create custom living and entertainment spaces. The chef’s kitchen is a dream with custom floor-to-ceiling hard rock maple cabinetry, infrared warmers, a 6-burner gas cooktop, a prep sink, and double ovens. The amount of available storage is awe-inspiring. The sink side features 40-inch countertops, and the entire space is classy, creative, and colorful. Truly spiffy!The dining area adjoins the kitchen, and French doors with transoms allow views of the living area and New Orleans style brick courtyard and detached garage apartment.
