Property Description
Seventy-five years ago when craftsman knew how to build houses with superior quality, this stone house with rich architectural detail was constructed on a quiet road with no through traffic. In time the neighborhood was distinguished by other homes with unique character and luscious landscaping. Transforming what was already an exceptional house, the present owners have created a showplace with every amenity for contemporary living. Preserving the original structure that featured random width oak floors, deep windowsills, extraordinary millwork and multiple fireplaces, an L-shaped two-story stone addition expanded and enhanced the living space. Designed by noted architect John Milner, the addition includes a spacious enclosed side porch with a wall of glass that connects the kitchen, main hall, dining room and a "tavern bar" to a great room/keeping room with a fireplace. The study, living, dining, and great rooms open to a partially covered rear brick patio with a koi pond and a gorgeous garden view. At the heart of the house is the remodeled kitchen with extensive custom cabinetry, limestone countertops with a farm sink, hand painted tile backsplash, and a granite top island with a vegetable sink. Appliances include a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, ice maker, and Wolf range with double oven, griddle and six burners. Highlighting the breakfast area, garden doors open to a greenhouse with cathedral ceiling, stone floor & potting sink. The addition's second floor features an elegant main bedroom suite with a fireplace, barrel ceiling with recessed lighting, and a Juliet balcony overlooking rolling lawn and private gardens designed by Charles Gale Nurseries and Hess Landscape Architects. Landscaping is illuminated at night. The sumptuous marble and limestone bath with cherry cabinetry includes a whirlpool tub and stall shower with rain and hand-held showerheads and seamless glass doors. Five additional bedrooms and three additional remodeled full baths complete the second floor. The basement level includes a media/playroom (32' x19") and a 6th bedroom/workout room (26' x 14') with a full bath. HVAC includes Weil McClain gas hot water furnaces and central air with six zones. The oversized three-car garage features a second floor studio with a Palladian window. Grounds include a fenced garden with garden house and a storage shed with bath and laundry. This extraordinary offering is a unique opportunity for the discerning buyer!
