Nestled in the heart of Ruxton on a quiet road, this striking contemporary residence offers both seclusion and sophistication in an idyllic setting. Designed with versatility and style, this home has been meticulously maintained and boasts a wealth of inviting living spaces, architectural interest, and thoughtful details throughout. Step inside the welcoming foyer, where sunlight streams through windows of the vaulted ceiling and gleams off the beautiful hardwood floors. A few steps down, the sunken formal living room creates an immediate sense of drama and warmth, featuring a gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and a soaring angled ceiling. The formal dining room is equally impressive—flooded with natural light and perfectly proportioned for grand gatherings. A butler’s pantry, outfitted with an ice maker, dishwasher, beverage refrigerator, and an abundance of cabinetry, makes entertaining effortless. The expansive eat-in kitchen serves as the true heart of the home, complete with a center island, separate work station, and direct access to the large family room. Here, a fireplace and floor-to-ceiling cabinetry create a cozy yet refined atmosphere, ideal for everyday living. Banks of glass doors from the family, dining and living rooms open to the inviting brick patio, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The main level primary suite is a retreat unto itself, featuring its own gas fireplace, a spa-like bathroom with soaking tub, a generous walk-in closet, and a connecting sitting room for relaxation or private study. A powder room, laundry room, and back staircase complete the level of the main house. Upstairs, an ensuite bedroom is thoughtfully set apart, offering privacy and comfort. Three additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a dedicated study provide abundant space for family or guests. The lower level extends the home’s versatility with a recreation room, ample storage, and closet space. The pièce de résistance is the attached apartment—perfect for multi-generational living, guests, or an au pair. With its own entrance as well as access from the main house, the apartment includes a full kitchen that opens to a spacious living/dining room with fireplace. Private stairs lead to a sitting room, bedroom, and full bathroom, making this a fully independent and inviting home within a home. The exterior grounds are as captivating as the interior. A half-circular front driveway connects seamlessly to the side driveway, providing abundant parking in addition to the detached two-car garage. Mature plantings, lush level lawns, and a sweeping brick patio encased on 1.35 acres create a setting ideal for entertaining, recreation, or peaceful solitude. This remarkable Ruxton property blends privacy, scale, and elegance—truly a home designed to accommodate every stage of living.
