A Gracious In-Town Retreat with Timeless Elegance Nestled on a picturesque, park-like acre just minutes from the village center, this meticulously renovated historic Colonial embodies the perfect blend of historic charm and modern sophistication. This classic antique four-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom residence was fully reimagined in 2015, preserving its storied past while infusing it with contemporary luxury. Upon entering, you are greeted by formal rooms that echo a bygone era of gracious living, seamlessly transitioning into expansive spaces designed for today's lifestyle. The family room, an elegant addition, features a cozy fireplace and French doors that open onto a breathtaking terrace. This outdoor haven, complete with an inviting fireplace, is framed by mature gardens and exquisitely executed stonework, creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living. The updated kitchen is a chef's dream, while the primary suite offers a serene retreat with a luxurious bath and custom walk-in closet. The guest cottage and pool house, with a full bath and HVAC, add versatile space, ideal for guests or a home office. The newly added elegant pool cabana enhances the outdoor living experience. With morning sun gracing the front and afternoon light filling the backyard, patio, and kitchen, this unique mini-estate is a rare find that harmoniously blends history and luxury.
