A naturalized bluestone walkway winding through native vegetation and fieldstone retaining walls leads to the front entry of the main house from a bridge over the stream separating the house from the guest house. One enters into a beautiful and spacious open living room/dining room area with fumed French oak floors, a coffered ceiling and views through to the rear of the property as well as acres and acres of Land Bank owned property abutting to the West and North. The sitting area is anchored around an elegant see-through double-sided soapstone lined fireplace. Beyond the fireplace is a light-filled sunroom with large panoramic windows, shiplap walls, custom built-in shelves and a stunning fumed French oak ceiling. A pair of doors lead out from the living room to the covered back deck, stone patio, expansive lawn, gardens, fire pit, pool and cabaña area. Off the entryway an open stair leads up to the second floor and down to the lower level, both areas clad in shiplap walls. To the right on the first floor is a powder room with wallpaper by Audrey Sterk and Waterworks fixtures and hardware. The back hall leads to the first floor guest bedroom and ensuite bath that includes a custom tiled shower, Waterworks fixtures and a custom vanity with stone top. The mudroom offers copious storage in a variety of forms, shiplap walls, bench seating and a laundry chute to the expansive lower level laundry room. The side “mudroom” door accesses the outdoor shower, driveway, garage and side yard.
A voluminous and light-filled open country kitchen features Pietra Cardosa counter tops, eight burner Wolf gas range with double ovens, tiled backsplash, two Kitchen Aid dishwashers, Sub-Zero refrigerator with two freezer drawers, a large center island with an exquisite thick white Carrera marble top that has custom front cabinet storage and stool seating.
