The perfect house is difficult to find, and to actually live in one, is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Massive walls of windows, skillfully executed design elements, and gleaming oak floors combine to provide a feeling of luxury. The open floor plan lends itself to entertaining, yet the cleverly placed rooms provide privacy when desired. Fireplaces create warmth on a snowy evening, as well as providing a dramatic focal point which you can enjoy every day. The main bedroom has a huge walk-in closet, built-ins and windows. Ensuite, of course. No matter where you look, there is always something special to see, and something special to enjoy. Skylights, walls of glass, shoji screens, dramatic beams -- every creature comfort can be yours. The basement, beautifully finished, has built-ins and tile floor, as well as a bonus room and full bath. One of the most enchanting features is the huge bluestone terrace, partly covered by huge beams interspersed with translucent panels enabling you to appreciate the beautiful plantings achieved by years of professional care and attention. This is truly one very special house!
