Off the market until summer 2011.
Wow! Your own quality built mansion! In your best dreams you may never have included all the features of this wonderful property.
Starting with the main home (yes there is also a carriage house), it is a wonderful sprawling ranch that has grown up and out into a massive Cape cod, with a superb finished basement.
The main floor features a marble foyer, with wide hallway and directional lighting to show off your art, if you are so inclined. The Elegant Formal Living and Dining Rooms feature hardwood floors, and elaborate molding, 10 lite double French doors give entry from the foyer. The dining room is perfect for entertaining, situated directly off of the kitchen with closing double doors, to keep the kitchen out of site but close at hand. Amble into the huge kitchen, and fall in love. Some folks may sell a car to get a commercial grade oven like this one with double ovens, 6 burners AND a griddle! The counter surrounding the stove is gorgeous granite, ready to receive you hot pots. The kitchen is made up of 2 work areas, and an eating area. The cabinets are lovely cherry, some with glass fronts and interior lites, others with pull out top and bottom shelves, 2 sinks, 2 refrigerators (one for the wine of course!) Scores of recessed lights, and under counter lighting, Lots of hardwood and a bay window in the eating area. Of course the eating area opens up onto the massive back deck, overlooking the pool, pond, fenced private 5 acres backing to woods, and the carriage house and oversized shed (it's almost a barn!). Not in the mood for the deck...no problem spend a relaxing afternoon in the sun room complete with hand laid Italian tile, vaulted ceiling, multiple ceiling fans, and skylights. Or stroll into the outstanding owners suites…no you are not seeing double, there are 2 bathrooms, one designed for reveling in a jetted tub of relaxation, the other with a shower so fine you will think you're in heaven (I think it has NINE shower heads!!!!!!). Of course the radiant heat in the floor and the designer sink and faucet just add to the appeal. Nope, your not done yet...The sleeping area is large, and boasts a sitting area in front of 1 of THREE fireplaces. There is a walk-in closet and 3 reach-in closets in the dressing room. Then saunter onto your personal side sun porch, with Walls of windows, private view of the pond, more skylights and ceiling fans...Had enough? No, we have only just begun!
The Family Room is fabulous work of craftsman ship, with Wainscoted walls, built in shelves and cabinets with interior lighting. A raised hearth fireplace - real wood burning but with a gas starter...nothing was forgotten! The 2 story ceiling allows a peak at the upper level, but you still have another main floor princess suite, ready and waiting, with it's private bath, linen closet and bedroom with sitting area. Oh, and don't miss out on lovely furniture style vanity in the elaborate powder room. Lets take a count....8 rooms on the first floor, not including the 3 full baths, 1 half bath, and the unbelievable laundry room.....
Up the over wide stairs (Much of the home is designed with the thought that wheel chairs or chair lifts may be needed at some future date) - you have a loft area, for study, or games or office. A nice view of the family room below double dormer windows, and ceiling fans add charm. Then there are 3 more Princess suites and a sitting room or craft room as well. The rooms are all spacious, the bathrooms are all tile floors, and 2 have extra long Corian counters. The closets space is awesome.
So on this floor you have 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2 additional rooms...but wait there is still an outrageous finished basement...but don't worry that won't limit your storage or workshop space in the least!
The basement again has the wide entry stairs, A rec room and bar area. There is a media room with the 3rd fireplace - this one is all gas, and then there is the wine cellar/ turned gym, but could be turned back to wine cellar for the coinsurer. And of course, there's a full bath for run thru the rain locker after a good work out.
The 2 car attached garage is oversized, and has room for a future ramp to the stairs to the home if needed. Which leads out to the curving driveway, which will take us thru the fence to the carriage house. Another oversized 2-car garage, with a full in-law apartment above. Outfitted with a full kitchen, with maple cabinets, Corian counter and sink and full size appliances it is open the living space, and there is a laundry room for your own facilities. There is also a large bedroom, and of course full bath....Whether used for guests, or relatives, this is a lovely private get away...
