About this House

Spanning over 5,100 square feet, this elegant home blends classic architecture with a modern aesthetic and conveniences. Bathed in natural light from 80 windows, 21 glass exterior doors, and 14 skylights, the sun-drenched living spaces and thoughtfully designed floorplan offer seamless flow and sightlines between generously proportioned rooms. High ceilings, crown molding, wainscoting, warm hardwood floors, built-in audio, and heated floors enhance the refined interior. The main level offers a welcoming foyer, two fireplaces, formal living and dining rooms, a grand south-facing sunroom, and a chef’s kitchen with professional-grade appliances and a marble island, flowing into a skylit family room. Upstairs, the primary suite is a luxurious nearly 900-square-foot retreat with a skylit marble bath, walk-in closet, and private office with a relaxing media room. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, with another full bath completing the floor. The sunny third level features panoramic views, a versatile bedroom, and sitting areas with an en-suite bath, including access to a serene rooftop retreat. The lower level has a private walkway and entrance and includes a fifth bedroom, full bath, and a sunny recreation room that opens onto a flagstone patio. Laundry areas on three floors, four HVAC systems, and cast-iron baseboard radiant heat add to the comfort and convenience of this home.
