This 1910 English Manor home blends the best of modern amenities with magnificent period details. At first sight one appreciates the slate roof, copper gutters, beautifully maintained brick exterior, enormous original front door and hardware, and even the carved oak crest over the door. Once you enter, the perfect synchronicity of old and new is captivating. Leaded glass windows, beautifully refinished wood floors, glazed paneling and a grand staircase with a hand-carved post, are some of the first antique elements to admire. The party-perfect central foyer leads to a grand sunroom completely rebuilt in 2020 with all new windows and French doors. Also off the main foyer is a large, elegant living room with beautiful woodwork detail on a wall anchored by one of 3 fireplaces. From here a study with a herringbone patterned brick floor opens to the wraparound stone terrace, once the site of a picture-perfect wedding. Going in the other direction off the grand foyer is an enormous dining/family room offering another incredible fireplace, this one with a secret cabinet. This flexible room has access to the sunroom, main foyer and butler's pantry. From the original butler's pantry, enter the eat-in kitchen, equipped with only the best appliances such as Subzero refrigerator, a stainless steel farm sink and a brick-accented wine/coffee station. All 4 second floor bedrooms are large and have baths en suite, 3 of them newly renovated and showcasing designer marble and tile. The master suite is unexpectedly modern in size and amenities with a sun-drenched bathroom, dressing room and no less than 7 closets. An adjacent deck offers the best view of the tennis court below. The 4th second floor bedroom suite is extra private and accessible from both a second staircase and the main upstairs hallway. Two more charming third floor bedrooms and an office share another new bathroom. Fresh foundation plantings, formal gardens concealing a path to Greenway Meadows and a parking court hidden by a tall brick wall surround the home. With updated wiring and plumbing, there's not a thing left to worry about! This home is more than just a romantic backdrop, it's ready for real life!
