Inside, magnificent architectural details abound, including soaring ceilings, exquisite millwork, hardwood floors, a dramatic circular staircase, extensive custom built-ins, and six masonry fireplaces that add warmth, character, and timeless appeal. The gracious foyer is flanked by the formal living and dining rooms, while a stunning front-to-rear sightline draws you through to the spacious step-down family room with coffered ceiling, fireplace and built-in bookcases; it is an impressive introduction to the home's thoughtful design. A richly appointed library, featuring handsome cherry built-ins, a coffered ceiling, and fireplace, is tucked into a quiet corner with access to the rear grounds, offering a perfect retreat.

The kitchen opens seamlessly to a warm and inviting hearth room, creating an ideal eating area. A nearby beverage station and generous butler's pantry further enhance the home's exceptional entertaining capabilities. There are five spacious en-suite bedrooms, including four on the second level and one in the walk-out lower level, providing comfort and privacy for both family and guests. The primary suite is incredible! It has a luxurious bedroom with fireplace, a sitting room with balcony access, a massive walk-in closet, and a light-filled bathroom with dual vanities, heated floors (NuHeat), a freestanding tub, and a deluxe marble shower with steam and multiple spray heads. The fully finished walk-out basement is an entertainer's dream, complete with a full bar, billiards room, two expansive recreation rooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a bedroom, and a second full kitchen-perfect for hosting on any scale.
