Designer Town & Country Home with Carriage House. Fantastic lower Greenfield Hill location: five minutes to town and train, two minutes to Greenfield Hill Market. Vintage charm combined with today’s sophisticated finishes and level 2.2 park-like acres (room for pool) equals pure perfection! Enjoy the sought after proximity to town and yet, quiet evenings with room to play. Remastered only the way a designer can, the chefs kitchen combines today's look with open shelving, center island, high-end appliances, (Viking, Subzero, Bosch) and a true walk-in pantry. We love the layout that features an open floor plan where you want it between kitchen, dining and family room. A generous formal living room with fireplace and bay window. And the new must have: 1st floor office tucked away w/private entry. The blend of vintage and new is impressive with wide plank natural floors, built-ins, claw foot tub and dark oiled bronze hardware co-existing with shiplap walls, vaulted ceilings and a plethora of recessed lighting. Terrific configuration of bedrooms on the 2nd flr with master, his + her closets, full bath, BR 2 with full bath en suite, + 2 BRs sharing a full bath. See floor plan. Just a few stepping stones away, the CARRIAGE HOUSE adds additional studio space + 3 garage bays. So many options here… Office, entertainment, guest or artist loft. Vaulted ceiling, hw flrs, recessed + pendant lighting. Plumbing w/potential for adding a bath (750 SF incl. in total SF). Just 58 miles to NYC.
