Behind the gates, a charismatic estate unfolds across 5 beautifully landscaped acres in a picturesque, park-like setting. A long, winding driveway passes a majestic pond before leading to a gracious valet turnaround and one of the most exquisite entrances. French doors open to a dramatic two-story foyer with granite tile flooring, setting the stage for the timeless elegance and exceptional design found throughout. The formal dining room captures breathtaking views of the grounds and offers convenient access to the kitchen, while the opposing living room is distinguished by an abundance of natural light, a stately fireplace and seamless access to a beautifully appointed wet bar. Adjacent to the living room, the impressive two-story family room is anchored by a stunning fireplace and opens to the deck, while offering a spectacular open-concept connection to the kitchen, breakfast room and all-seasons room.

An extraordinary retreat in its own right, the all-seasons room features vaulted ceilings, panoramic views of the grounds and direct access to an expansive deck.
