About this home
Price Improved! In addition to the recent price reduction, the seller has already obtained the Township Certificate of Occupancy, providing added convenience and peace of mind for the buyer. The septic system has also been significantly upgraded with brand-new components, enhancing both value and long-term reliability.
Elegance and comfort define this custom-finished Contemporary Colonial, distinguished by its striking White Belgian brick exterior. Privately situated on a picturesque 1.92-acre fenced lot, the property is secured by an estate-quality Jerith fence with stately entrance gates. Bluestone front steps create an impressive arrival, while the expansive, park-like backyard offers mature trees, lush open lawn, a Trex deck, and a charming gazebo—an ideal setting for entertaining or simply relaxing outdoors.
Graceful statues warmly welcome guests, setting the tone for the grandeur within. The dramatic foyer is highlighted by a sculptural curved wooden staircase, an elegant European chandelier, and beautiful marble and granite flooring. Designed for both sophisticated entertaining and everyday living, the home features a distinguished library, a spacious kitchen with a large center island, a dining area, and an expansive living room with soaring vaulted ceilings, a skylight, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling ceramic tile fireplace. The inviting family room, complete with a second fireplace, flows seamlessly into a spectacular sunroom illuminated by six skylights, creating a bright and welcoming space to enjoy throughout the year.
Upstairs, hardwood hallway lead to four generously sized bedrooms, each featuring custom closets and its own private balcony—perfect for enjoying peaceful mornings or evening sunsets. The luxurious primary suite showcases oversized skylights ideal for stargazing, a cozy fireplace, and a spacious en-suite bath with a soaking tub and separate shower.
With twelve skylights and three wood-burning fireplaces, the home is filled with abundant natural light and inviting warmth.
The semi-finished, multi-room basement provides exceptional flexibility for a home office, fitness center, media room, recreation area, or additional storage.
