Description

This extraordinary home offers a fine blend of classic charm, luxurious amenities and impeccable attention to detail, making it a true standout. Professionally landscaped, extra wide corner lot, included rebuilding the front terrace, which welcomes you to the home. Inside, you are immediately treated to walnut herringbone floors in the foyer, living room, and dining room adding an air of timeless elegance. Mark Menna created the custom wall of built-ins surrounding the LR Fireplace, highlighting the Ann Sacks tile surround. This sets a warm and sophisticated tone. Both the LR & DR have french doors that open to the front terrace, a wonderful feature for summertime entertaining. The custom kitchen, designed by Jean Stoffer, is a chef's dream with high-end appliances, including a 48" Wolf with double ovens, Subzero refrigerator and honed quartz countertops.
