Description

Located just off Ridge Road, 54 Fennbrook Drive is a home and property so special that the current owners bought it twice, returning to make numerous "to the studs" renovations that enhance an already charming 3-fireplace interior replete with built-ins, full-wall bay windows, moldings, and arches. The improvements include a totally reimagined eat-in kitchen with custom white cabinets, quartz countertops and beyond generous storage; a jewel-like guest bath; an exquisite radiant-heated four-season porch; and a primary bedroom wing with radiant-heated his and her half-baths, a shower, laundry and storage area, as well as a large, attached multi-purpose room with its own split-unit heating and air conditioning that makes an ideal home office, nursery, or exercise room. Other improvements include remote-controlled gas units for all 3 fireplaces, a lovely bluestone patio, a new driveway, a whole-house 24 kw natural gas standby generator, and a restored English garden that complements a large and level backyard that's perfect for anything from a casual game of touch football to a joyous outdoor wedding. This elegant yet very comfortable home is truly a rare gem!
