Timeless architecture. Exceptional craftsmanship. Intentional design. As evening falls and thoughtfully designed architectural lighting illuminates the distinctive cut quarry stone and handmade custom brick facade, this extraordinary custom residence reveals its true character-elegant, welcoming and unforgettable. Encompassing more than 6,500 square feet of impeccably finished living space with six bedrooms and four-and-one-half baths, the home was designed with equal attention to grand-scale entertaining and comfortable everyday living. A breathtaking two-story foyer makes an unforgettable first impression with its sweeping curved staircase, soaring ceilings and stunning art glass chandelier. Oversized quarter-sawn red oak flooring, custom millwork, elegant ceiling treatments and beautifully proportioned rooms continue throughout. Formal living and dining rooms provide timeless spaces for entertaining, while a private executive office with custom built-ins offers a refined work-from-home environment. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen is appointed with Sub-Zero, Wolf, Bosch and Miele appliances, custom cabinetry, an oversized island, butler’s pantry, built-in coffee system and warming drawer. The adjoining breakfast area and expansive family room create a natural gathering place before extending effortlessly to the home’s remarkable outdoor living spaces. The primary suite is a private sanctuary with vaulted ceilings, a fireplace and spa-inspired bath featuring skylights, dual vanities, an oversized walk-in shower and sculptural soaking tub. Four additional generously sized bedrooms-many with vaulted or tray ceilings-offer exceptional comfort and flexibility. Designed for entertaining on a grand scale, the expansive lower level features a fully appointed second kitchen with premium appliances, recreation room, fireplace lounge and a professionally designed, engineered and acoustically calibrated home theater. A sixth bedroom and full bath provide ideal accommodations for guests or extended stays. Integrated audio, video, professional-grade networking, discreet security and entertainment systems enhance everyday living while remaining virtually invisible. Lutron HomeWorks intelligently automates interior and exterior lighting routines while simplifying functionality to the touch of a single button. Outside, expansive stone patios, an outdoor kitchen, fireplace, hidden 65-inch television, mature landscaping and multiple seating areas create a private oasis for entertaining or unwinding at the end of the day. Professionally designed architectural and landscape lighting transform the residence after sunset, beautifully highlighting its exceptional architecture. Beyond what is immediately visible lies an equally impressive level of craftsmanship and engineering. Radiant heated floors-including the attached garage-cast iron plumbing for quieter living, extensive acoustic insulation, thoughtfully engineered mechanical systems and premium construction practices create a level of comfort and performance rarely experienced, even among luxury homes. Beautifully maintained and continually enhanced, this is a home where beauty, comfort and intelligent design work effortlessly together. More than a luxury residence, it is the culmination of countless thoughtful decisions-a home designed not simply to be admired, but to be experienced. Some homes are purchased for what they have. The most extraordinary homes are chosen for how they make you feel.
