Only the second stewards of this distinguished residence, the current owners have maintained it with meticulous care while treasuring the privacy and tranquility of its rare setting. A pea gravel circular drive leads to the stately Corinthian-columned front porch, which opens into a breathtaking foyer anchored by the most graceful curved staircaseThe expansive living room with fireplace flows seamlessly to the sunroom and dining room clad with handpainted Zuber wallpaper, both opening to multiple terraces overlooking the lush grounds. A handsome library, with its own fireplace, adjoins the heart of the home-the kitchen.

This chef's kitchen showcases marble-clad custom cabinetry with an oversized walnut island, premium appliances and a generous walk-in pantry. A sunlit breakfast area, framed by a wall of windows, provides the perfect spot to start the day. The mudroom offers abundant storage, a chic garage entry, and even a custom retreat for your furry friends. The renovation also added a first-floor laundry, a third powder room, and other thoughtfully designed spaces.The home offers 4 bedrooms, 4 full and 3 half baths. The first-floor primary suite features a fireplace, sitting room, marble bath with dual vanities, and walk-in closet.

The finished lower level includes a second laundry, family room, fitness area, and ample storage. Additional amenities include a whole house generator, 2 EV chargers, landscape lighting, irrigation, hardwood floors, exquisite fixtures, mature landscaping, and a handsome garden cottage once used as a heated and cooled office. Copper roofs and gutters, installed within the past three years, complete the timeless appeal.
