The front foyer of the home is dominated by this imposing, antique pier mirror, which is a permanent fixture in the house. Built into the home during its original construction, the mirror, which is surrounded by a carved wood frame, is too large to fit through any of the doors. The mirror reflects the graceful staircase leading to the second floor and vintage heart pine floors that extend throughout the house.
