Inside, the living room boasts a wood-burning fireplace with custom hot rolled steel & stone surround, complemented by illuminated built-in shelving on both sides. Dual French doors open to a charming front porch, seamlessly connecting indoor & outdoor living spaces while welcoming natural light into the home. Follow the imported Hakwood Oak flooring to the remarkable De Guilio kitchen, a culinary haven equipped with top-of-the-line Wolf appliances (incl. a convection/steam oven), Sub Zero refrigeration, a built-in coffee maker & closet/pantry. The butler's pantry with ample storage, prep sink & Sub-Zero freezer drawers lead to the sophisticated dining room with grass cloth wall covering & wall paneling. The Carrara marble stone & tile will delight your guests in the powder room & a spacious mudroom with coat closet & shoe cabinet complete the 1st floor. Ascend the sleek staircase, illuminated by one of 11 skylights throughout the home, to discover the luxurious primary suite. This sanctuary with a gas fireplace flanked by dual sets of French doors to a private balcony overlooking the lush yard will melt any problems away.

The lower-level family room with 8' ceilings & an electric heated tiled floor has ample space for your oversized couches & you'll still have room for that Peloton and treadmill. Then enjoy a serene walk through the meticulously landscaped yard of trees, perennials & bluestone paths, ensuring vibrant colors year-round, to "the Cove" a coach house featuring two indoor parking spots, EV charging, & an additional utility & storage area. The stylish upper level studio stands out with skylights, wood flooring, a full kitchen opening to a steel cantilevered terrace, laundry room & separate utilities.
