Through the gated entrance, down a long driveway, and over a babbling brook, this 4 bed, 3½ bath New England estate lies among the privacy of lush, mature landscaping. A two-story foyer welcomes guests to this entertainer’s home, and beyond, a spacious living room features a cross-beamed cathedral ceiling, stone fireplace, seated wet bar, built-ins with window seat, and simply amazing 100+ year old leaded glass window, imported directly from a church in England. The formal dining room’s elegance is derived from its wainscoting, French bay window, and gorgeous coffered ceiling. Custom antiqued pine cabinets fill the huge “farm” kitchen, which also includes a large butcher block center island with prep sink, garden window, and stainless steel appliances including Sub-Zero refrigerator and Viking double oven and trash compactor. Beyond, a delightful breakfast room offers a beamed cathedral ceiling with skylights, and French doors that open out to a lovely covered dining patio. A private maid’s/guest wing has its own bath and separate entrance. A fantastic library/study/media room features French windows that rise all the way up to its wood beamed cathedral ceiling, well-dressed fireplace, built-ins, and private reading patio. The romantic master suite spoils with French doors out to Juliet balconies that flank the bed, cozy window seat, dual walk-in closets, and large sitting room with French doors out to a covered patio. The master bath has dual vanities, frameless steam shower, and relaxing spa tub. Outside, the idyllic yard contains a sparkling pool and spa, shaded lounging areas, and an outdoor kitchen pavilion. In another area, a small garden provides space to grow your own fresh produce. This is truly a one-of-a-kind property, ideal for entertaining or just enjoying nature’s solitude.
