A landscaped front walkway leads to the covered front door entry revealing a soaring two-story foyer. This introductory space offers a curved staircase edged by raised panel woodwork, Brazilian cherry floors and a graceful oil-rubbed bronze chandelier. Arched doorways frame views into some of the main gathering areas including an elegant dining room lined in raised panel beaded board walls and crown moldings. A fabulous great room is set under beamed cathedral ceilings and anchored by a stone fireplace. The granite-topped wet bar with counter seating, two sets of French doors to the sun room and window walls capturing countryside views are distinctive additions. In the coffered ceiling sun room, natural light fills the space from three walls of windows, while an airy ceiling fan and tile floors are also featured. Continuing the open flow is a den designed with built-in cabinets, bookcases and a window seat, a sun-filled room that adjoins the impressive gourmet kitchen.
Brazilian cherry floors from the den continue in the kitchen where custom cherry cabinetry, granite counters, a tumbled marble backsplash and granite-topped center island with stainless steel bar sink and breakfast bar seating are stylish details. A series of upscale appliances includes a Fisher-Paykel™ dishwasher, Miele™ dishwasher, Viking™ six-burner cooktop, stainless steel Viking™ microwave, paneled Sub-Zero™ 48-inch refrigerator, two stainless steel Thermador™ double convection ovens and stainless steel warming drawers. The inviting breakfast area opens to a paver patio for outdoor meals. Nearby, a well-appointed mud/laundry room, walk-in pantry and rear hall with storage options are thoughtful touches. A guest suite with a full tiled bath completes this level. Upstairs, the grand master suite contains high angled ceilings, crown moldings, a sitting area, two windowed walk-in closets fitted with wardrobe organizers and a lavish master bath. This indulgent owners’ space offers a jetted tub encased in marble, an oversized clear glass door shower with seating, double sink vanity flanking a center makeup vanity and private commode.
