About This Home

As of July 2025

Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this sophisticated and beautifully crafted brick home is set on a spectacular 1.8-acre professionally landscaped lot. Offering exceptional privacy, timeless design, and expansive living spaces, this residence blends elegance and comfort in every detail. A grand two-story foyer with marble flooring, sweeping staircase, and intricate custom millwork welcomes you inside. The formal living and dining rooms showcase stunning parquet hardwood floors, and provide an elegant setting for entertaining. The beautifully appointed chef's kitchen features honed granite counters, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, double ovens, a Viking cooktop with retractable vent (2025), marble center island, travertine floors, and a charming breakfast nook with breathtaking views of the lush backyard. Open to the kitchen is a warm and inviting family room with a gas fireplace and large sliding glass doors that lead to an oversized screened porch with durable Trex decking-perfect for entertaining or relaxing outdoors. The sunroom, also adjacent to the kitchen and bathed in natural light, serves as a versatile space that could function as a sitting room, office, playroom, or bar. A spacious laundry and mudroom with built-in cubbies connects conveniently to the generous three-car garage. Upstairs, the serene and spacious primary suite offers sweeping views over the gardens and an updated all-white marble bathroom, featuring a freestanding tub, separate walk-in shower, dual vanities, and two walk-in closets. A loft office area, an ensuite guest bedroom, and two additional bedrooms with a shared Jack-and-Jill bathroom complete the upper level. The fully finished basement includes a large recreation room, exercise area, bar, half bath, and ample storage space, offering even more flexibility for everyday living and entertaining. This home has been meticulously maintained with numerous updates including a cedar shake roof replacement in 2023, new dishwasher and garbage disposal in 2024, new water heaters (2019 and 2024), and new carpeting (2019). The dining room was remodeled in 2023. Additional features include California Closets, vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood and marble flooring, and extensive custom millwork throughout. A centrally monitored security system with fire and carbon monoxide detection was installed in 2024, along with smart exterior security cameras added in 2023. With 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 3 half baths, this light-filled home offers an open floor plan, generous room sizes, and breathtaking views of nature-providing the ultimate in space, comfort, and seclusion.
