EUROPEAN ELEGANCE 

Timeless Grandeur:

Inspired by the regal splendor of a grand French chateau, this remarkable 2006 residence, distinguished by the stately symmetry of its handcut Jerusalem limestone facade, is an aristocratic showcase of exquisite architectural design and dimension reflecting extraordinary quality and craftsmanship. Stone pilars frame the entry to the nearly three majestic acres in a premier mid-country estate area. An impressive front-to-back 20 by 20-foot reception hall with a double-height arched ceiling, Thassos marble flooring, a floating staircase and double French doors to an expansive bluestone terrace presents a noble introduction to the sophisticated interior. 12-foot main floor ceilings, Brazilian cherry flooring, intricate wainscoting, gracefully arched doorways, imported custom millwork, doors and fireplace mantels enrich 10,900-plus square feet of ultra-luxurious living space.

Formal and informal wings of the home are connected by a broad transeptal gallery with an office/study and dual powder rooms. Elegant marble/limestone fireplaces and multiple French doors enhance the formal living room, magnificent cherry paneled three-exposure library with coffered ceiling, and spectacular European-fashioned "Great Room" with soaring 25-foot trussed ceiling. The custom center-island kitchen with butler's pantry is a professionally-equipped epicurean dream. French doors in a glassed breakfast room open to the terrace. There are five ensuite family bedrooms plus a main floor staff/guest suite. Sumptuous, tray-ceiling master retreat features a fireplace, his/her walk-in wardrobe closets and separate, radiant-heated marble baths. There is a 4,000-plus square foot unfinished lower level.
