Impeccable Estate Close to Town on Quiet Lane
|
A handsome stone wall borders this high property with a southern exposure. Curved stone entranceways with pillars and Belgian block paving open to the circular driveway which leads to a courtyard with a lovely oval pattern. The columned front portico shelters the entrance door and the breathtaking center hall rises two stories with an impressive stairway. Wide archways open to the generous living room and the formal dining room, both with fireplaces, herringbone floors and long windows - these rooms work wonderfully for entertaining. The center hall with a powder room leads to the library with a fireplace, a wet bar and a bay window with french doors opening to the expansive terrace. Opposite this is a sitting room with a south-facing bay window, a billiards room with two exposures and a main floor guest suite with a sitting room. The family room with a fireplace has a bay window with french doors to the terrace, and it adjoins the glorious country kitchen also with a floor-to-ceiling bay window in the casual eating area, a butler's pantry and access to a bathroom (ideal for pool changing) adjoining the laundry room, a mudroom and the three-car garage (there is also a separate two-car garage). Upstairs is a fabulous master suite with a fireplace in the sitting room with french doors to a balcony, two elaborate dressing rooms, two luxurious bathrooms (one with a whirlpool bathtub) and a fireplace in the bedroom, while five additional bedrooms have en suite bathrooms. The lower level is a huge space with a high ceiling designed to become a home theater, a large gym or any number of other uses. Seldom do homes such as this come to market with 12-foot ceilings, superb detailing, lovely floors, marvelous room scale and a graduated slate roof in this totally convenient location, minutes from schools and shopping - a truly immaculate and impeccable home in prime condition.
