Description

Set on an acre of exquisitely landscaped grounds on iconic Hill Road, framed by mature trees and vibrant perennial gardens, this grand 5 bedroom, 4.1 bathrooms, Georgian estate masterfully blends timeless sophistication with modern luxury. Classic interiors and sweeping panoramic views create a serene backdrop for everyday living and elegant entertaining. Outside, abundant gardens reminiscent of the English countryside, a sparkling pool, expansive stone patios, and a delightful three-season screened porch provide an idyllic oasis for everyday fun and gatherings large and small. Step into a grand and gracious foyer, where a sweeping bridal staircase sets the tone for the refined interiors beyond. The elegant living room, anchored by a handsome gas fireplace, opens to a screened porch that invites seasonal outdoor enjoyment. Just beyond, a charming library offers a quiet retreat, while the dining room is perfectly suited for hosting memorable dinners. The heart of the home is a gourmet kitchen, outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances and custom cabinetry, which flows seamlessly into an inviting family room with a cozy wood burning fireplace and radiant heated floors throughout the two rooms. French doors lead out to a picturesque patio, offering stunning views of the pool and manicured grounds. A private office with its own en-suite bath provides exceptional flexibility, serving as an ideal guest suite or convenient first-floor bedroom. Upstairs, discover five well-appointed bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite featuring a serene sitting area, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath complete with radiant heated floors. A second-floor laundry room adds to the home's thoughtful and functional design. Among the additional bedrooms, one boasts its own en-suite bath with a steam shower, while two others share a Jack-and-Jill bath- with individual vanities in the bedroom for privacy and convenience. The remodeled (2024) lower level with a gas log fireplace offers abundant space for recreation and relaxation, ideal for a home theater, game room, and/or casual lounge area. With its classic architectural details, contemporary updates, a 2 car attached garage, and breathtaking outdoor living spaces, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional home in an enchanting setting.
