Nestled on nearly an acre at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this secluded and romantic mini-estate offers luxurious one-level living at its finest. This Cape Cod ranch, built in 1957 by a prominent local builder for his own family, seamlessly blends charm and sophistication. The home features four spacious bedrooms and four full bathrooms, including a stunning primary suite with a fireplace, vaulted ceilings with decorative beams, and direct access to a private dog run. The lavish primary bath includes a heated floor, oversized shower, and whirlpool tub, along with dual walk-in closets and a secondary laundry area. A gallery hallway leads to additional walk-in closets, a full bath, and a third bedroom with a custom walk-in closet and its own en-suite bath. The inviting foyer opens to a formal dining room with French doors-currently serving as an office-and a dramatic great room with a full-wall fireplace and walk-in bar that opens onto the rear deck and yard. Designed for entertaining, the custom eat-in cook's kitchen features top-tier Sub-Zero, Thermador, and Bosch stainless steel appliances, an island with breakfast bar and cooktop, and sliding doors that lead to the deck and rear patio. A back hallway leads to the fourth bedroom, also with a custom walk-in closet and adjacent full bath. The versatile family/exercise room includes a wet bar, dishwasher, and ice maker. Outside, enjoy the in-ground pool with automatic cover, multiple fenced dog runs, an antique gazebo and an oversized detached three-car garage. Additional upgrades include a new cedar shake roof and a whole-house Generac generator.This private retreat offers serene living with unparalleled convenience-just minutes from everything, yet tucked away in a peaceful, picturesque setting. Truly "1 of a Kind."
