Nestled on a lush, private lot, this stately 1928 Georgian Colonial is one of two “sister homes” designed by renowned architect Roy Firestone, perched atop Ridgewood Road in Fairlawn Heights. With 6 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, the residence blends timeless elegance with thoughtful updates for modern living. The grand marble foyer sets the tone, leading to sweeping formal gardens and a fenced, in-ground pool and pool house w/half bath and outdoor kitchen. The main level includes a marble-floored dining room with hand-painted chinoiserie wallpaper, a refined living room with marble fireplace and parquet floors, and a sunlit garden room with antique chandelier, latticework walls, and curved privacy glass. The kitchen—renovated in 2023—features quartz countertops, WoodMode cabinetry, a large island with vegetable sink, hand-painted tile, high-end appliances including Electrolux, KitchenAid, and Fazar induction cooktop, plus Andersen 400-series windows. Adjacent is a stylish bar with marble top, a cozy library with fireplace, powder room with brass accents, and an expansive family room with new neutral carpet and fireplace. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a sitting room, walk-in closet, dressing room, and spa-like bath. Five additional bedrooms, including two in the original staff quarters, for a total of six bedrooms and four full baths. A hidden stair leads to attic storage. The finished lower level includes a rec room with fireplace, study, full bath, laundry, and heated two-car garage with extra storage. Guard VIP home warranty included for peace of mind! Lovingly maintained and rich in architectural pedigree, this is a rare opportunity to own a home of enduring character and refinement.
