Scenic Nod Road is home to this beautifully updated Greek Revival styled home complete with Ionic columns as you approach. The indoor spaces are as warm and inviting as the outdoor spaces are bright and tranquil. Rooms are generous in size and each encompasses a sense of pride of its antiquity. A center chimney provides for a fireplace (one with beehive oven) in both the Living and Family rooms. Dinner in the open and inviting Dining room with its bookcased walls will bring memories of animated discourse. The Kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, white cabinetry and marble counter tops adjoins a Bay windowed eating area with western exposure. It doesn't stop there, step down to a stunning 22' x 16' Sun room with outdoor exposures on three elevations, herringbone brick flooring and Palladian windows, all of which overlook... one of the Town's finest pools - 1100+ sq. ft. in all!! Outbuildings include a 984 sq. ft. one bedroom guest cottage, perfect as a rental or as an in-law/au pair residence; 2 car garage and pony barn. A recent $10,000 landscaping expenditure is coupled with drawings by a noted landscape architect for your future plantings. 249 Nod Road is the quintessential country home.
