About this home

Featuring a beautifully flowing layout that attends to all the needs of today’s lifestyle, this timeless Georgian-inspired residence is a stately but understated presence on sweeping grounds. Themed with refined classic style, this well-appointed home offers comfortable spaces for everyday living and large-scale entertaining. Inviting fireplaces are focal points of the living room and bookcase-lined library served by a wet bar. Bringing the lush outdoors in, the sun room opens to a deck and tree-ringed lawns. Also leading to the deck, the great room combines the gourmet kitchen with casual living/dining areas featuring a fireplace, bookcases and beamed ceiling adding warmth to the generous scale. Four bedrooms include a comfortably elegant master suite plus a mid-level suite – ideal for guest/au pair quarters – with playroom. The walk-out lower level has a large game room, kitchenette, bath with sauna, media room and exercise room. There is a 3-bay garage plus ample guest parking.
