This charming home with stone exterior has been reimagined to reflect today’s style of living. The first floor consists of kitchen open to dining area and living room drenched with natural light. Elegant touches include floor to ceiling glass doors with automatic shades, and custom quality shelving and cabinetry. Also on the first floor is a full bath, and den which could be used as a first floor bedroom. The second floor consists of two bedrooms, each with ensuite bathroom. This home, built in 2012 on almost two acres, has too many details to name; a circular drive with landscape lighting, and multiple outbuildings including a heated office, storage shed, garage and car port. Situated with excellent proximity to Essex Village and Rt 9 and I-95, this home must be seen to truly understand first-hand the inspirational details that were used in its creation.
