Property Description
Set on a beautiful tree-lined street, this home is full of unexpected luxuries. It is an exquisitely appointed center hall stone colonial with 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and 2 Powder Rooms. As you enter the Center Hall, you are immediately struck by the large, open feel which has been meticulously maintained. There is a lovely Dining Room to the right with lovely detail and a fabulous light fixture. To the left is a light-filled formal living room with gorgeous fireplace, custom lighting and access to a large office area separated by a stunning asian-inspired custom built dividing wall. The office has magnificent tiger maple accents (including the ceiling) and doors leading to the outdoors. The gourmet eat-in kitchen has high-end appliances including a sub-zero refrigerator, Fisher & Paykel double drawer dishwasher and center island with cooktop. A few steps down and there is a fabulous tiled mudroom with closet space and access to the side entrance. In addition this space includes a wonderful, multi-use office/desk space. This area opens to the large, spacious family room with cathedral ceiling, stunning windows and access to the fabulous patio. Upstairs, the Master Suite has beautiful hardwood floors, a Juliet balcony overlooking the beautifully manicured backyard, private access to a stunning yoga studio with tree-top views on all three sides, a large maple wood dressing area with custom cabinetry and a fireplace, a spa-like bathroom with Jacuzzi, large shower, toilet and bidet as well as a walk-in closet. There are three other bedrooms on this floor - a cozy, step-down princess room with private full bath and two other good-size bedrooms with ample closets. The hall bath has been beautifully renovated with eco-conscious materials. The third floor is a fabulous space with a good size bedroom and office. The basement has been recently and thoroughly renovated with an extensive waterproofing system, great hang-out space and separate area for exercise equipment or additional recreation space. The grounds of this home are truly spectacular. Both the front and rear gardens have been professionally manicured, there is a very large patio with pavers and a lovely sitting wall. There is even a chess pattern built-in to the patio! This house has been unbelievably improved over the last couple of years and is truly a home that offers so many special amenities.
