A bespoke jewel of a home steeped in historical value. The former 'Gardener's Cottage' for the Webster Estate in Old Chestnut Hill has been seamlessly blended into a larger footprint with contemporary additions including a gym, steam room, 5 fireplaces & a masterful 1900 bottle wine room. The large open Chef's kitchen boasts an oversized center island and stainless appliances. Multiple windows and French doors afford plenty of light and easy access to the expansive rear corner yard with pool, jacuzzi & Har-Tru tennis court. Choice living areas include a stunning sunroom and a more formal living room and dining area which opens dramatically off the main foyer. The second level primary suite offers a striking vaulted ceiling, grand stone fireplace, office with large balcony and a luxe spa bathroom. A family game room downstairs hosts an impressive home theatre. A charming Nanny's suite located above the garage with a private entrance completes this magical estate, moments to Longwood CC.
