The front entry of 1 New Town Lane faces the water and as you enter the home you are met with a large foyer and sweeping stairs to the second floor. To the right of the foyer is a large, light filled formal dining room with direct access to the kitchen. Just off the kitchen is access to the back patio and gardens and a charming ""back "" stairway to the second floor. To the left of the foyer is a very spacious living room with a fireplace and windows overlooking the water. Adjacent to the living room is a private study with access to a peaceful quiet covered patio overlooking the gardens and the water. The second floor offers 4 bedrooms, two baths and a laundry.
