Reminiscent of a pre-war architectural masterpiece, this new home is a glorious. The entrance courtyard is generous, and a broad stone walkway leads to the entrance portico. The handsome front door with a leaded glass transom light opens to the spectacular front-to-back center hall with a major stairway, high ceilings, french doors to the terrace and one of two Waterworks powder rooms. The living room, with an 11' ceiling, is breathtaking with a fireplace, four expo-sures with long, custom-made solid mahogany windows and the amazing quarter-sawn, wide-board floors which continue throughout the house. The formal dining room has a fire-place with a 200-year-old Philadelphia mantel and french doors outside, and the wonderful panelled library with a fireplace has beautiful bookcases. The heart of the house family room/kitchen is 45' x 25' - a superb scale room with a fireplace in the sitting area, four exposures including french doors opening to the lovely terrace designed for outdoor enter-taining, exceptional quality cabinetry and top-of-the-line appliances. Upstairs is the very generous master suite with a fireplace, two luxurious Waterworks bathrooms, two elaborate and large dressing rooms (one is 26' long) and a study. There are three additional bedrooms (one with a fireplace) with Water-works bathrooms and a second-floor laundry plus an additional lower level en suite bed-room with windows onto the 90' verandah with stone arches next to the 35'x 25' media, billiards or second family room. Garaging is for three cars, plus there is a mudroom, a glorious wine cellar with a barrel ceiling and state-of-the-art equipment. The ceilings are high (11' on the first floor, 9' on the second), the doors are impressive with lovely hardware, the detailing is a delight with carved moldings, entablatures and fireplaces. The whole effect is that of a fabulous 1930s stone manor with a slate roof, yet built only a few years ago. New to the market.
