This resplendent Tudor home, spanning over 6,300 sf, sits majestically on an expansive 8,800 sf lot, enveloped by a large private rear yard that evokes a sense of tranquility. As you approach, the traditional Tudor front entry tower welcomes you with its stone surround entry porch, adorned with intricate herringbone and timber detailing, setting the tone for the grandeur that lies within. Step through the original old-growth solid wood front door, now adorned with diamond glass and Baldwin hardware, into a realm of sophistication and comfort. The main level unfolds with an air of refinement, boasting a paneled formal living room graced by a wood-burning fireplace, built-ins, and beamed ceiling, offering a sanctuary for intimate gatherings.

In addition, a custom wet bar with quartzite countertops, custom fabricated quartzite sink, two beverage refrigerators, antique mirror, and glass-paneled tower cabinets provide an elegant space for entertaining guests. A striking sun-filled family room is the pièce de résistance of this home, boasting a volume ceiling, three exposures, and 9’ sliding doors that invite natural light to flood the space. Two gorgeous chandeliers add a touch of sophistication and ambiance to this inviting gathering space. The allure of the main level extends outdoors, where a covered rear porch and sunny brick patio beckon for alfresco entertaining amidst the privacy of the fenced rear yard. Ascending to the second floor reveals an absolutely stunning true primary suite, suffused with natural light and boasting a voluminous ceiling, spa-like bathroom with quartzite counters and custom walnut cabinetry, and an expansive closet.
