Nantucket elegance in the heart of Madison and quite simply, in a class of its own! This thoughtfully crafted home was custom built in 2006 with every detail in mind and a style reminiscent of those you would find on the Cape & Islands. The building lot was selected for it's prominence in the neighborhood, sited on the highest elevation. The professionally landscaped grounds were designed to create a sense of privacy and a park like setting. Inside you'll find 5 well sized bedrooms, including an exceptional 1st floor master suite, 2 family rooms, 3 full baths, 2 powder rooms, 2 laundry rooms, exceptional millwork, 2 fireplaces and cherry floors. The chef's kitchen is a highlight and is well appointed with Carrera marble countertops, an expansive center island, Dacor 6 burner gas cook top, Viking double wall ovens, a Subzero fridge, a custom painted wet bar and an eat-in-kitchen area. The open concept family room is the heart of the home and was designed to create an ideal environment for entertaining and family living with double french doors to the deck, perfect for alfresco dining or pool side parties. The sophisticated dining room flows easily into the living room with custom built-ins and a gas fireplace. You'll find the highest quality of design and installation with Rohl fixtures, Kohler plumbing, steam units, soaking tubs and custom cabinetry in the bathrooms. Lovely and private pool and outdoor shower! Truly A+. Note: Seller to find suitable housing. Agent related.
