Property Description
Nestled in a wooded setting at the top of the City, this exquisite, unique and luxurious French style home is waiting for that special buyer who recognizes craftsmanship, functionality and flexibility. You will be impressed by the whimsical look of the entry with its landscaping and solar streetlamp post before you even open that glorious front door, but once inside classic splendor awaits. The entry foyer exudes warmth with hardwood flooring, crown molding and hints of the circular floor plan of level 1. From the start you know you are going to be dazzled, and you are never disappointed. There is so much house here, it defies description. The sellers know they have a home that is so special they created a complete description of every room on every floor and all the features that highlight each one. It includes a full description of the exterior elements, the utilities and systems throughout the house. The unusual detail made it a must document to share in its entirety, so we have uploaded it so the buyers won't miss a single thing. But, to give you a thumbnail sketch, a formal living room, formal dining room, great room, gourmet kitchen , media room/family room/potential 5th bedroom, laundry room and half bath make up the main floor. The upper level consists of a Master bedroom with en suite bathroom, two additional bedrooms and an additional bathroom. Probably the biggest surprise of this amazing property is the lower level. There are nice additions like a mud room, another full bathroom, and a bedroom/office that can be really anything you can imagine. But it is the great room (a combination living/dining room) with a welcoming fireplace and an entire, full kitchen that solves so many problems in today's generational living requirements from in-law quarters, to au pair living quarters, to adult child's needs. The entire home has an inclusive audio and visual security system. This level has access to the 2-car garage, and there are 3 additional parking spaces. The exterior was landscaped in 2020. This house is a masterpiece, and you may look at others, but this one will stay top-of-mind. So look at the seller's features inventory document, notice things like solar street lamps, Leaf Screen gutters, concrete patio, natural gas, Alexa enabled Honeywell Thermostat, Culligan Water Softener with a reverse osmosis system, lighted media closet, garage shelving, garage man door to the back yard, French glass doors, bidet, cedar closet, dimmer switches, 48 bottle wine rack, under counter refrigerator, hardwood flooring, Honeycomb/cellular shades, fireplaces, Trex decking, peninsula seating, Thermador dishwasher, oversized spa tub - and you will say, "I have to see this house." And then you'll move right in, because this one beckons you to stay!
