Nantucket Summer Home

Adjacent to the family room,the library is a private refuge that's primarily used by Charles. Chocolate-colored sisal carpet, warm beige walls, natural matchstick blinds, and furniture upholstered in neutral tones make this a quiet, reflective room. Bookshelves provide space for Jane's collection of Central American folk art statues.
