An arched doorway (enlarged in 1997 to boost the room’s sense of spaciousness) leads from the entry hall to the living room, where visitors get an idea of the homeowners’ vast art collection: A group of paintings behind the piano includes work by Lincoln Perry, Charles Smith, Clay Witt, Susan Bacik, Leon Kroll and Elizabeth Huey (on the adjacent wall).
