About This Home
As of August 2016The rarely offered, highly desired, Windsor Park Forrestal model is here!! This elegant 5 bedroom, 4 bath, brick estate home charms from first sight. 4300 square feet of well-conceived space with a true first floor guest suite. Beginning with the paver walkway to the semi-circular front step, you're welcomed into a gracious two story foyer flanked by roomy living and dining rooms. Through the living room, the eye catches a glimpse of a stunning library with cherry paneled walls and wood burning fireplace. This two story room with custom spiral staircase is secluded enough for a home office or private retreat. The kitchen is the center of the home and the heart of daily life. It offers not only a large food prep area but also a sun filled morning room with walls of windows, skylights and views of the park like backyard. There's a granite island boasting a Dacor 5 burner gas cooktop vented to the outside, a Miele MasterChef convection oven and warming drawer, as well as a double pantry and Butler's Pantry for serving. The kitchen opens into the family room with vaulted ceiling, skylights, built-in entertainment center and convenient back stairs to the bedroom level. Leaving the kitchen in the other direction is the secluded guest suite consisting of a bedroom, sitting room and full bathroom which offers the ease of multi-generational living or comfort for overnight guests. The bathroom in this suite has a door to the backyard allowing it to double as a cabana/changing room/bathroom for guests around the pool as well. The second level offers a tremendous master bedroom suite with walk-in closets, separate sitting room with romantic gas fireplace and a luxurious master bath with an oversized, multi-head tiled steam shower and whirlpool tub! Three more great sized bedrooms and a full bath complete this level. As if this weren't enough, the basement is nearly fully finished into three independent rooms and the backyard is a virtual playground with an oversized paver patio designed for independent gathering areas, fire pit and 40,000-gallon heated swimming pool. Escape the sun under a retractable, electric awning while enjoying the warm summer months. Almost too many features to write up but worth mentioning are the hardwood floors throughout the first level and the benefit of freshly painted walls and ceilings throughout with new carpeting in the bedrooms and upstairs hallway. Opportunity knocks rarely; don't miss this one!
