Built in the 1930's and sitting on just over 6 acres of elegantly landscaped grounds, this remarkable estate embodies the exquisite craftmanship of a bygone era. Quite literally designed to be shown off, the home features a series of formal rooms ideal for entertaining. A wide center hall just behind the front door hosts the sweeping grand staircase, flanked by the living room on one side and the dining room on the other. Each of these rooms are calibrated to life in all four seasons, equipped with a fireplace but also opening onto the extensive outdoor living spaces. The living room, all delicate wallpaper and built-in bookshelves, leads to the loggia which skirts the back of the house. Intricate French doors in the dining room open onto a similar scene, gently bringing the outside in. Beyond the patio lies a vast lawn, almost a small park of its own with neat lines of trees and even a gazebo. Moving through the floorplan, the home gradually sheds its sense of formality. A large, eat-in kitchen provides a cool and casual space to hang out, as does a comfortable joint library and den. A total of five bedrooms lie upstairs, including a spacious master suite overlooking the boxwood gardens below. Just a stone's throw from downtown and the train station to take you further, the idyllic spot is everything you could want.
