The top floor is divided into two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom en suite. With extensive cabinetry, a gently sloped ceiling, as well as a private deck overlooking the backyard, the room at the rear of the house is perfect for a child or teen. Overlooking Ashbury Street is a unique and expansive space that, if not used as a bedroom, would make a perfect creative studio or a large second office. It is also a daring tour- de force of home renovation. Conventional wall treatments extend up to the level of the crown moldings, at which point an open-beam ceiling begins, exposing the whitewashed joists and boards of the original 1893 construction. The effect is especially remarkable within the turret, where it displays the ten-sided pinwheel of ceiling beams converging overhead.
