When you enter the home you will find a spacious great room with a large stone fireplace, a spiral staircase, and cathedral ceilings with exposed wood beams that draw your eye to the upper level balcony and loft space. You will instantly be able to appreciate the incredible wood craftsmanship throughout. This home offers a tastefully restored European kitchen with stainless steel appliances, double sink, built in range, double oven, tile backsplash, and butlers pantry. You will find a morning room on the main floor with gorgeous stone and double french doors that lead you to the back private terraced courtyard. There are three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two half bathrooms, and an additional living quarters area located on the second level. The additional living quarters area can be accessed from the pull down hallway ceiling steps or from the separate outside back patio steps. This space includes two rooms that could offer additional bedrooms, an in-law suite or home office space. On the lower level you will find a fully finished basement with a wine cellar, laundry accessibility and half bathroom. There is restored hardwood flooring, deep window sills, wood beams, a cedar closet and lots of natural lighting throughout the home. The home has slate tile roofing. Outdoors there is a beautiful mature . 30 acre landscaped yard with a private original stone walled courtyard, perfect for entertaining. The creatively landscaped garden design is a must see. This property includes an attached one car garage, driveway and convenient off street parking.
