Field Point Circle
|
Belgian block lines the broad driveway winding to the entrance circle. A portico shelters the handsome front door of this white-washed brick home with a slate roof and Georgian detailing, designed by William Barnum. The wide center hall with a powder room leads to the step-down living room with high ceilings, an elegant fireplace, a tall bow window towards the water and french doors to the terrace. The large, nearly square din-ing room has south-facing windows and doors to a welcoming terrace with an electric awning. Also south facing is the panelled library with a fireplace, a wet bar, a wine closet and access to the terrace and this adjoins the luxurious master suite with a large, window bay toward the water, a window seat bracketed by bookcases, two glorious new bathrooms (one with a whirlpool bathtub and a separate shower stall), two dressing rooms and a secondary bedroom, snoring room or sitting room plus a lovely private garden terrace looking toward the view. The brand new kitchen in exquisite taste also faces south with superb cabinetry, top-of-the-line appliances and access to the cheerful, east-facing breakfast room adjoining an elaborate pantry area with cabinets for linens and china. There is a study, guest room or staff room with a new bathroom adjoining the rear entrance with a laundry room and a door to the attached garages and the service courtyard. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms (one has a dressing room and a Chippendale-style balcony) plus a study with a Dutch door to the front balcony. A panelled Bavarian rathskeller with great charm completes the picture of this wonderful, immaculate and beautifully decorated home in this totally convenient waterfront association with 24-hour security, real privacy and walking or bicycling right from the front door away from traffic on this broad curving road, originally built as a race-track. Very special - new listing - please call.
