About this home

Timeless Architecture. Inspired Design. A Truly Special Setting. Classic Tudor character meets beautifully considered modern living in this exceptional 1894 home, surrounded by lush, established gardens that create a remarkable sense of privacy and escape. Recently refreshed with stylish new decor and a fresh perspective, the home feels warm, sophisticated and wonderfully livable. From the moment you enter, original architectural details and gracious proportions set this home apart. The inviting living room, anchored by a fireplace, is complemented by a handsome library, offering wonderful spaces for both everyday living and entertaining. The formal dining room provides an elegant setting for gatherings, while the wraparound sunroom is an irresistible spot to relax and enjoy views of the gardens. A thoughtfully designed addition by renowned architecture firm Morgante Wilson transforms the rear of the home with a sun-filled family room and beautifully appointed chef's kitchen. An adjoining breakfast room brings the gardens into view throughout the day, while a butler's pantry and practical mudroom make the space as functional as it is beautiful. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat with a serene bedroom, private sitting room and luxurious bath featuring a statement soaking tub and steam shower. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath and an unusually spacious laundry room complete the second floor. The third floor offers two more generous bedrooms and a full bath, providing tremendous flexibility for family, guests, offices or creative space. The lower level beneath the addition was fully excavated to create a dramatic 12-foot ceilings and fantastic media and game rooms. Outside, the grounds are every bit as memorable as the interiors. Thoughtfully designed native, rain and perennial gardens create layers of color and texture while remaining surprisingly easy to maintain. The original horse barn has been beautifully repurposed as a two-car garage, preserving another piece of the property's history, and a paver pad provides a third off-street parking space. Heated floors, smart-home technology, newer windows, a new roof and high-quality mechanical systems add modern comfort behind the home's historic character. A rare combination of architectural pedigree, sophisticated updates, extraordinary gardens and spaces designed for the way we live today. 2 PINS
