John Storrs Restoration
A re-built sofa by Adrian Pearsall faces the original stone fireplace. The open beam ceiling and large glass windows are classic mid-century modern attributes.
This set of original doors was rescued from the basement and refinished and re-installed. Notice the native American etched design on the handle escutcheons.
Owner’s antiques, a custom hi-fi, and vintage furniture re-upholstered make the living room cozy and comfortable.
