About This Home
As of September 2020Sunset Hill (1906), a gracious and spacious Ruxton estate on 6 protected acres, was originally built as a summer respite from the whirl of the city. An elegant home, the current owners have taken great care to maintain its cherished charm and outstanding craftsmanship, while bringing it securely into the 21st century with thoughtful renovations and lasting style. Live in quiet comfort or entertain lavishly - both equally possible. The main floor includes casual and formal living areas and a stunning gourmet kitchen with pantry, and is surrounded by a quintessential wrap around porch and sun room. 11'+ ceilings, oak floors with mahogany inlay, leaded glass windows and four wood burning fireplaces make for memorable spaces in which to live and thrive. Five bedrooms and a family room on the second floor include a serene master suite with sweeping views of the estate. The third floor offers 4 more bedrooms/bonus rooms - as you choose. A stately outbuilding in its own right, the former barn now serves as a six bay garage. Just a short stroll and you are slipping into the sparkling waters of the pool, complete with pool house. A unique, rare and delightful opportunity.
