Coveted Lower Easton location offers a rare and magical combination of privacy, convenience, and community. 2.31-acres of lush landscaping and gardens, just steps from the Easton Reservoir and one hour from New York City, this impressive 5-6 bedroom home achieves a pitch-perfect harmony of modern and timeless design. The interior seamlessly blends Classic center hall sensibility with thoughtfully curated California style. It features a flexible floor plan with options for first or second floor primary suites. Second floor suite showcases a cathedral ceiling and a massive wall of glass overlooking the property and forever green CT State land. Highlights are the exposed beams, smartly configured walk-in closet, and romantic soaking tub. First floor features a two-bedroom wing currently used as a home office and guest suite, with its own foyer and two full bathrooms. This area could easily serve as a primary suite, a Jack-n-Jill, au pair or in-law suite. The kitchen is a chef's dream, with custom cabinetry, Carrera marble counters and top end appliances, flowing directly into a dedicated breakfast area and expansive dining room. Outdoor spaces include an oversized enclosed three-season patio, slate farmhouse-style front porch, secluded backyard dining patio, and fire pit. A home built for entertaining. The unfinished 2000+sf basement is clean and dry, and presents endless opportunities for growth. Style, rhythm, and function combine to create one harmonious habitat.
