The spacious formal living room accommodates a grand piano and features Bradbury wallpaper, custom window treatments and a wood-burning fireplace.

An adjoining wet bar complements the homes entertaining spaces.Upstairs, hand-painted bucolic murals add remarkable character, while the stunning library showcases detailed ceiling work and a two-tier mantel with wood stove. Views of downtown Lowell can be enjoyed from the upper levels. The property may also be available completely furnished.
