A short hall leads directly to a carpeted living room. The space includes a stacked stone wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter, a vaulted wood beam ceiling, and windows overlooking Naketa Beach. Within a built-in next to the fireplace is the dumbwaiter, used for bringing firewood from the home’s lower level.
