Masterfully designed. Impeccably crafted. Effortlessly comfortable. This timeless home in a quiet location is all of this and more. From the custom-built doors to the door handles, hinges, and cabinet pulls all forged on site during construction by Swiss contractors specifically flown in for this project, this home is truly special. Elevated. The impressive main house not only features 5 generous bedrooms and 3.5 updated bathrooms, but also a music room, a game room, a study and an office. The kitchen, with its large island, porcelain counters and high-end appliances, sits at the heart of the home and opens to the family room and central courtyard. The private central courtyard is an entertainer's dream, with room for large scale formal affairs or more intimate gatherings of family and friends. Guests can flow into and out of the interior spaces through numerous French doors, and caterers can discretely prepare hors d'oeuvres and meals away from guests. The swimmer's 25-yard-long lap pool with large adjacent lawn invites a vigorous morning workout. - or a raging pool party for the young or young at heart. Discretely located behind the garage and overlooking the pool and lawn, the guest house is a haven for guests, offering complete privacy with all the amenities.
