An impressive brick, stone, and cedar exterior sets the tone for this fully reimagined estate, designed by Lauren Strutman Architects. The thoughtfully crafted open floor plan features well-proportioned rooms, wide-plank oak hardwood floors, contemporary lighting, and expansive windows that fill the home with natural light. A vaulted porch entrance, accented by timber trusses and a mahogany front door with beveled glass panes, welcomes you into an elegant oak-lined foyer. The formal dining room and library-paneled great room exude timeless sophistication, with a beamed ceiling, stone fireplace, and marble wine bar. The spacious family room, anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling fireplace, offers an inviting setting for gatherings and everyday relaxation. Designed for the culinary enthusiast, the custom kitchen boasts granite countertops, premium Monogram appliances, a seven-foot center island, and a butler’s pantry. An expanded breakfast room with a wet bar flows effortlessly into the hearth room, where a cathedral ceiling and third fireplace create a warm, inviting ambiance. The primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a customized walk-in closet and spa-inspired bath. Two generously sized additional bedrooms, connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, complete the main-floor living quarters. A rear staircase leads to an additional bedroom suite with a private balcony. Enhancing the estate’s appeal is a beautifully appointed guest house featuring a living room, workout room, well-equipped kitchen, and private bedroom suite—ideal for extended family or overnight guests. Set on a gated 1.4-acre property, the grounds offer a resort-inspired outdoor experience, with a sparkling gunite pool, secluded outdoor living spaces, putting green and meticulously landscaped gardens. A four-car garage and porte cochere complete this exceptional estate, where timeless architectural character meets refined modern living.
