A stately home office rich with built-in shelving facilitates executive endeavors with distinction.  The adjacent main level bedroom suite, with its stone bath and eye-catching accent wall, lies ready to welcome visiting guests, while two stylish powder rooms and mudroom with secondary refrigerator round out the main level floorplan.

A dramatic winding staircase ascends to the upper level of the residence, revealing a luxurious collection of private bedroom quarters.  The primary bedroom suite is distinguished by soaring ceilings, two enormous walk-in closets, and a romantic balcony gazing out to the park-like rear yard.  The lavish bath features two limestone vanities with ample custom storage, a deep soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and a separate water closet.   

The beautiful second bedroom suite is defined by on trend chandelier lighting, a roomy customized walk-in closet, and a spacious adjoining bath with natural stone tile floor, a pedestal sink, and a glass enclosed tub/shower combination.

The basement level of the residence is entered from a central stairway descending from the great room. Illuminated by multiple light wells throughout, these additional living areas add yet another dimension of dynamic livability.  The expansive recreation room features a sleek bar and kitchenette with rich wood cabinetry, granite counters, microwave and a beverage center.  The adjacent wine cellar is a connoisseur’s dream thoughtfully designed for tasting experiences.  The lounge space, with its built-in cabinetry and large screen television, creates the ultimate destination for sports and movie enthusiasts alike.  The home gym/yoga studio is sure to please the fitness fanatic, while the comfortable bedroom provides a versatile solution for au pair quarters or visiting guests.
