A stately circular driveway sets a welcoming tone upon arrival, complementing the home’s distinctive mansard roof and timeless architectural lines, all thoughtfully designed by renowned architect, Sam Brewton.

Fully updated in 2021, the main level blends elegance with modern luxury. The remodeled kitchen features granite countertops, stainless appliances, a casual dining area, and direct access to a newly built deck for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The adjoining family room provides an inviting gathering space, while a formal keeping room with fireplace and a separate dining room create sophisticated options for hosting. The main level also includes a library/den, laundry room, and three well-appointed bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bath for ultimate privacy and comfort.

The third level, accessible by a graceful spiral staircase or a convenient elevator, offers treetop views and a sun-filled space ideal for a private office, art or yoga studio, or creative retreat.

Designed with flexibility and multigenerational living in mind, the lower-level functions as a complete apartment with a private entrance. This space includes a spacious bedroom and sitting area, living room, kitchenette, wine bar, and an accessible bathroom with a seamless-entry shower. A large screened porch extends the living area outdoors. Created in 2023, this level is ideal for hosting guests or separate living quarters and is plumbed for a dedicated washer and dryer.

Outdoor living is exceptional, with a stone patio for dining and entertaining, two screened balconies off two bedrooms, and tranquil wooded surroundings that offer privacy and a natural backdrop for gatherings. Whether enjoying morning coffee, hosting dinner parties, or relaxing at sunset, the home’s outdoor spaces invite year-round enjoyment. Storage is abundant throughout the home, including multiple walk-in closets, dedicated storage rooms, and a spacious 2-car garage.

Eco-conscious buyers will appreciate the 28 solar panels with backup Powerwall batteries, delivering efficiency, resilience, and peace of mind.
