About this home

With its commanding presence on historic Melville Avenue, the Terhune house offers a palatial and stately exterior with a warm, classic and elegant interior. The entry hall opens to a winding stair and several large entertainment-sized living spaces. The formal dining room has coffered ceilings, wainscoting and one of three fireplaces on the first floor. Friends and family will gather in the marble and walnut kitchen with large center island and chef's range. A second floor lofted library overlooks the beauty below and has six bedrooms (one with fireplace), laundry and a show-stopping paneled billiards room with fireplace and half bath to cap off an evening with good cheer. Architectural details abound and include inlaid floors, pocket doors, French doors, spindle work, stained glass, columns, arches and more all illuminated by a glorious southern exposure. Outdoor features include a generous fenced back yard with patio/deck, front and side porches and lovely perennial border gardens.
