In its former life, this generous-sized living room was a double parlor with french doors serving as dividers. Now, you'll find hand-painted walls and two matching antique white marble surround fireplaces (salvaged from a Beacon Hill home).
The feathered-grain oak floor and 9-foot ceilings with tall windows enhance the spacious nature of the room. But the space exudes elegance and sophistication as a result of the owners' smart decor choice: the juxtaposition of antiques with modern art.
