About This Home

As of July 2020

This extra special Ettl Farm showhouse is finally available for the first time since it was built! With a bluestone-edged pool and cupola-crowned poolhouse designed by Cathy Knight, it's even better now than when it was featured in Toll Brothers Magazine. A picket fence, white clapboard siding and brand new roof are a one-of-a-kind combination on one of the largest lots. Upon entry, an open central staircase stops you in your tracks. Hardwood floors, a soothing palette and lots of natural light make every room feel fresh and bright, most notably the cathedral sunroom lined with fanlight-topped windows. The living room and 2-story family both have fireplaces. Find all the high-end names you'd expect, like SubZero and dishwasher drawers by Fisher-Paykel, in the eat-in kitchen. A huge mudroom with custom cubbies is essential to a busy household. Also invaluable is the finished basement ready to show guests of all ages a good time. A sitting bay with pool view, a dressing area with closets for every season and a spa tub are highlights of the master suite, one of 5 bedrooms served by 3 full baths.
