Handsome wrought iron gates, flanked by brick piers topped with iron light fixtures, open to a curvilinear drive graced by broad verdant lawns and specimen trees. A landscaped courtyard, set off by low stone walls and manicured flower beds, welcomes guests to the delightful three-story main residence. Exuding old world charm, the brick faรงade is topped with a steep pitched Ludowici terra cotta tile roof punctuated with dormers. Brick chimneys and a fabulous circular tower with a cone shaped roof add visual interest to the composition. French doors and multi-paned casement windows are dressed with wood shutters and pretty flower window boxes.

Standing sentinel over a rear courtyard and garden, a majestic old growth beech tree provides shade and beauty.

Once inside, the inviting entry foyer features hand crafted timbering that flows into the spacious and light-filled great room.

Wood beamed ceilings, timbered archways, gleaming hand carved wood paneling and wide plank peg board floors add warmth and architectural character to the great room. Flanking the wood burning fireplace, two sets of glass French doors open to a threeseason sunroom overlooking green lawns and the pool in the near distance.

The floor plan is designed to capture natural light from multiple sides of each beautifully scaled principal room. The pine paneled library has a fireplace and a hidden wet bar with an integrated ice maker. Five floor-to-ceiling glass French doors form a wall of windows at the far end of the room showcasing the gardens.

Within the tower, a graceful circular staircase with a masterfully constructed iron handrail and balustrade sweeps up to the second and third levels as well as to the fully furnished lower level.

At the opposite axis of the home, a lovely casual dining room features parquet floors and glass pocket doors. The elegant formal dining room overlooks both a tranquil walled garden and the beech tree garden. It has parquet floors, refined moldings and a fireplace with a carved marble surround. The butler’s pantry has custom cabinetry, a wine closet, ice maker and fully integrated appliances.

Original parquet floors continue into the expansive state-of-the-art kitchen that is a symphony of design. Beautifully crafted custom cabinetry includes a large prep island. Top-of-the-line appliances are seamlessly integrated into the cabinetry, and there is a custom French Lacanche range with two ovens and matching hood. At one end of the kitchen, a dining area overlooks an expansive walled bluestone patio and garden. At the opposite end, a lovely seating area is incorporated into a large box bay window.

A butler’s kitchen has a Gaggenau convection oven, Viking range and ovens and integrated appliances. Combined, these two kitchens are equipped for fabulous large-scale gatherings and celebrations.

There is a side entrance with a covered porch and a mudroom with a brick floor outfitted with attractive storage cabinetry. A charming office with built-in cabinetry has oversized glass doors that open to the front courtyard.

The second level is accessed from both the main and rear staircases. The luxurious master suite occupies its own wing of the second level. It has French doors that lead to a large deck overlooking the gardens and pool complex. There are fabulous custom dressing closets and a spa-like master bath with a jacuzzi tub and marble shower. On the main axis of the home, there are three large bedrooms and two baths with an adjacent playroom. Two small bedrooms feature en suite baths, and there is a restful guest bedroom with a hall bath that completes the second level.

From the main stair, the third level arrives at the wood clad top of the turret. An intimate sitting room with built-in shelving, high ceilings and a marble top bar leads to a well-appointed office with an eyebrow window. Accessed from the back staircase, two lovely bedrooms with baths have views into the sprawling branches of the beech tree. A cedar storage closet completes this level.

The finished lower level has a spacious combination billiard/media room that has been engineered for both sound and projection.

A fireplace adds warm ambiance. There is a bar area, mirrored fitness room and large laundry room as well as a wine room.
