In 1945, Mr. Magaziner transformed this home to what it is today. You will immediately appreciate all the original features that were carefully preserved, while enjoying all the modern conveniences.

Flanking the entrance to the formal dining room are gleaming lead glass panels.

The kitchen and baths were renovated with Koehler and Moen faucets, shower heads, medicine cabinets, wall sconces, bathtubs, and sinks.

Hand-painted stone backsplash imported from Italy completes this warm kitchen.
