Nothing about the yard?

I'm conflicted about this one. There's a lot to love but for some reason it doesn't draw me in and make me say "wow".
The interior reminds me of a gift shop. Or maybe a conference center. I do like the color palette and there are tons of architectural details like the cove lighting and the varying height ceilings that are very Sarah Susanka-ish and that are definitely my thing.
But...I don't see interior areas that invite me to sit down and chill. Like there are no tables near the sofa. Where to put my cup of tea? And the slipper chairs with the big pillows that have to be moved in order to be comfortable to sit in. The sofa in the hallway near the front door? I guess you could drop your coat there but it isn't a place to sit. Well, maybe if you're waiting for an Uber to pick you up.
It's also a bit on the dark side, and that's coming from someone who isn't into super-light colored interiors.
But...they've done a masterful job of integrating the inside and the outside. Nice views of the outside from many areas of the house. The walkout basement with the doors to that very inviting patio garden -- lovely. That inviting, cozy vibe is what, for me, is missing from much of the rest of the house.
I think I'll save my $2.65 million and see if there's something else out there that I can't live without.

I love it! But I would clear some of the plantings near the windows. It seems like every window has something blocking it.
It's cluttered, which is not my style.
I wonder if it was originally a multifamily house, maybe different apartments on all three levels?

Oh, I like it a lot! I enjoyed all the artwork.
I think they need a different color piano though... Maybe red like Elton John's red Yamaha.... That corner where the piano is is too dark and the black piano got swallowed up...
