This one-of-a-kind home offers an uncommon opportunity for single-level living and separate in-law/ au pair quarters, both with access to enviable outdoor amenities nestled on 3.84 acres. While totally private from every angle, the lot is as close to town as you can get within a neighborhood known for luxurious estate-style properties. The open formal rooms are wonderfully airy with high ceilings and gloriously sunny, lined with French doors to a stone terrace overlooking a saltwater pool. A family room tucked between 2 bedroom suites is a cozy spot for a quiet night in. Two more suites at the opposite end of the house include the primary with the very best view of the pool and one of 4 fireplaces. Hardwood floors and Hunter Douglas blinds are consistent throughout. While the eat-in kitchen and butler’s pantry come equipped with new Bosch dishwashers, separate full-size Sub-Zeros, and a Viking range, there is ample opportunity to add your personal touch. You may choose to devote the multi-room, walk-out lower level to guests and in-laws or you may use it as space to support poolside entertaining and year-round play. It has its own fireplace, full bath, kitchen with dedicated laundry, and more! Don’t miss all the vast space of the unfinished areas, as well. Beautiful tall windows adorn the 2-car garage with a charging station and wrought iron gates mark the courtyard entry for a striking first impression. Turn this special as-is property into a true reflection of you and your lifestyle!

The entrance court is surrounded by a brick wall and has antique metal gates. A two car garage has attached area for workshop or den. Quiet and private location, yet very close to town.
