Custom built in 2001 with extensive updates in 2017 and 2021, every aspect of this gracious home, inside & out, has been exquisitely designed, creating a tranquil haven set among the beauty of mature trees surrounding an expansive and stunningly landscaped backyard oasis. As soon as you walk through the front door, you feel welcomed into the warmth of the home's casual elegance with 9-foot ceilings, rich hardwood flooring, tasteful architectural details, hand-crafted millwork, soothing color palettes, and expansive windows flooding the house with natural light. The well-functioning flow of this 4-bedroom 5 bath home starts with the natural gathering place: the kitchen. Designed as an open-concept space adjoining the family room, the gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight with custom-crafted cabinetry with ample storage, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and an expansive island with quartz countertops. The home provides so many opportunities to entertain and gather, whether in the elegant formal dining room with adjacent expanded butler's pantry, the comfortable living room with quartz-surround fireplace or the remodeled finished basement with a magnificent walk-in, climate-controlled wine cellar and bar or the basement's cozy family room with fireplace for family movie night or watching the big game. The gracious elegance of the home continues in the remodeled and updated private quarters on the 2nd floor with four generously sized bedrooms, three ensuite spa-like bathrooms and spacious laundry room. The 3rd floor offers additional finished space with flexibility for many uses, including an exercise room or 5th bedroom as well as a bright and airy loft space for a home office, studio or kids' play area. One of the remarkable qualities of this home is how it was designed to be in harmony with its natural setting, allowing you to move effortlessly between indoor and outdoor spaces. And what a setting it is! Situated on nearly an acre with a 418-foot-deep lot, you'll love this magnificent park-like setting of expansive lawn and meandering paths through lush landscapes and tall pines. Imagine sitting on bluestone patio under the pergola or around the fire pit listening to the calming sounds of the bubbling fountain or spending evenings in the cool shade of the charming screened in porch - now equipped with four seasons windows. Inside & out, this home is right out of a magazine just waiting for you to create a lifetime of memories.
