Description

Welcome to this well-maintained French Country Modern home, thoughtfully designed and customized by the original owners to combine elegance with functionality. As you arrive the property you can't help but notice the seclusion from the street yet the convenience of this location. It's truly the best of both worlds. Look around and take in the beautifully manicured grounds and the winding walkway to your entrance. Opening your front door please note the floral decorative dichroic glass top inset windowpane. You are immediately greeted by the two-story foyer with natural wood oak floors. This expansive open floor plan is highlighted by a pair of 15-pane French doors that seamlessly connect the spacious living room with the family room, which boasts beautiful Brazilian cherry hardwood floors and a cozy fireplace. Large south-facing windows at the rear of the home fill the living areas with natural light. The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen, which features a charming French country-inspired design with granite countertops, a free-standing island, and terra cotta-colored 12” floor tiles. The island pendant lighting is made of handmade Italian glass. All appliances are stainless steel. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the formal dining room for entertaining or a quiet dinner for two. One of the standout features of this home is the private office suite. This unique living space includes a separate entrance from the enlarged driveway, a flexible additional space, and a powder room. While the space is currently used as a private practice office suited to accommodate in-person client meetings, this versatile space can easily function as a home office, an au pair suite, or an in-law suite. This space, which was completely remodeled recently, includes a stylish feature brick wall, separate heating and cooling system, and professionally designed lighting. The upper level of the home offers four spacious bedrooms, all with bamboo flooring, providing an updated eco-friendly touch. A beautifully designed bridge at the top of the stairs allows for more natural light and an open and airy feel. The primary bedroom features a private walk-out balcony, perfect for relaxing and enjoying some downtime. The primary bath is spacious, with a skylight that brings in additional daylight and highlights the soaking tub and sink area. The spacious step-in shower is enclosed by a glass wall and a separate door that provides privacy for the personal areas. Another highlight of this fine home is the lower level. The larger recreation room is pre-wired for surround sound, making it a perfect media room. Adjacent is a space that has been used as an in-home office. Space-saving 15-pane pocket doors connect this room to a fitness area with ample room for a Peloton bike, weight station or a yoga area. Step outside to your private outdoor retreat. A custom-designed deck extends from the family room, offering ample space for dining, entertaining & lounging. A walkway leads to the hot tub, while the entire area is enclosed by a stylish black metal fence, complemented by lush landscaping. A unique Zen-inspired fence, with an oversized circular gate, separates the backyard from the driveway, creating an additional element of privacy and tranquility. The entire property has beautiful and mature landscaping. Some additional features include high-end lighting fixtures that provide an elegant-like aesthetic. Please also note the finished two-car garage featuring finished drywall walls and ceiling. The main floor laundry is conveniently located off the kitchen. From the high-end finishes to the carefully curated lighting, every corner of this home showcases a commitment to quality and design. This home offers an exceptional blend of custom design, modern comfort, and flexible spaces for work and relaxation. This is one you must see to appreciate.
