The minute you step onto the property you are transported to an elegant experience. Former builders showcase house and this was the first family to make it a home. Current owners have turned it in to a magnificent estate home and spared no expense! This is a huge corner lot 110 X 158 which can be subdivided into two lots if you wish! The corner lot was purchased and a spectacular conservatory was constructed to be enjoyed all year round, featuring over 20ft tall vaulted wood paneled ceilings with a gorgeous floor to ceiling masonry brick and stone double sided wood burning fireplace as the centerpiece. The Conservatory is all glass and wood overlooking an English garden featuring a 10 ft bronze 3 level fountain and complete privacy. Every corner of the property to every corner of the home has been meticulously maintained, the highest quality of construction and materials have been used on the home, conservatory, cottage and extensive grounds. The possibilities are endless with this estate.

For the vegetable gardener in you there is an elevated 20 ft long plot intact with sprinkler system that sits on the south side of the home to make your gardening easy. Entire property is beautifully landscaped with perennials and evergreens making it almost maintenance free with 20 zone sprinkler systems through the entire property. This custom luxury builders home is truly a showstopper. Too many details to fit here. A must see for your discerning buyers who want an exceptional private lifestyle. This is truly a special custom home with all the high end finishes that you expect, 10 ft ceilings on first floor, large well appointed kitchen with high end appliances (Commercial GE & Subzero) 2 sinks, 2 islands and all new quartz countertops. All lighting throughout the home is new except the vintage lighting.
