Sophisticated Hamptons styled 3 bedroom home with first level Master Bedroom is set on an idyllically landscaped 1 acre parcel with pool surrounded by elegantly hardscaped terraces, breathtaking Gardens and open Lawns which invite effortless, alfresco entertaining. An exciting, renovated interior boasts dramatic volume spaces, highlighted by details such as an impressive wood burning fireplace in the Great Room, custom display cabinetry in the Library and seated full service Bar just off the welcoming Foyer. Stunning vistas through the floor to ceiling large panel windows enhance the open concept Great Room. A series of gently arched French doors open to the blue stone terrace which is ringed by evergreens for privacy. The Dining room, connected to but raised above the Great room for both impact and definition, leads to a newly renovated sparkling white Kitchen with subtle veined white quartz counters and white tiled backsplash. Stainless steel appliances including a 4 burner gas cooktop offer requisite function while a southern facing window floods the room in natural light. The Breakfast Area, with peaked ceiling, is flanked by mullioned display cabinets and provides informal dining. Steps away is a walk-in pantry, a two "outfitted" car garage, a powder room and additional rear terrace exit. An indulgent Master Suite with 10+ Ft ceiling provides two walk in closets, a wall of windows and connection to a tiled, spa quality Bath with oversized seated shower, two independent slab limestone vanities, under window jetted tub and private access to the expansive deck upon which one can happily start or end their day. Two additional family Bedrooms, one currently purposed as an Office, and both offering generous storage, one with use of a handsome full Bath with shower and vessel sink and rear guest has en suite Bath offering marble topped vanity. Pristine, turn-key, tastefully selected. .. An exciting alternative and mandatory must see for individuals seeking elegant, 'Right-sized' living.
