Home of the Day: Bird Streets traditional has ties to ‘Inspector Gadget’

A hand-carved front door, original crown molding and handsome built-ins are among details of the East Coast-inspired home. A formal dining room draws the eye with a dark marble fireplace, vaulted ceilings and crystal chandeliers.
