Description

Grace and romance are the words that come to mind when describing this 7,260 sq ft. circa 1929 Manor house. Reached along an 1,100 ft long private driveway, the 9.4 acre estate has meticulously maintained grounds w/strikingly elegant trees and perennial gardens surrounding a brick patio. A sweeping lawn leads to a brick reflecting pool with a fountain framed by a grand gazebo. Off to the side is their privately owned pond. All of the flooring in the home is original. The large entry hall as well as the dining room share hand-laid, oak veneer over oak, mosaic flooring crafted by Italian artisans. The living room features a hand-carved marble fireplace, built-ins and French doors to the outdoors. The paneled family room/den has vintage paneling on the walls, a fireplace and three ways to access the outdoors. The oversized library has high ceilings, built-in shelving, a fireplace and a floor to ceiling wall of glass to view the outdoors. The kitchen was remodeled in 2009 and is adjacent to the original butler's pantry and a breakfast room. The primary suite is on the second floor. Truly a suite, it has dual baths (one with a fireplace), two walk-in closets and two offices- one with a fireplace. There are views of the pond and gardens as well as a small terrace overlooking the pond. There are two additional large bedrooms, ensuite with fireplaces. The bathrooms are timeless thru-out the home. The staff wing could easily be renovated into two or three large bedrooms or kept the way they are. Conveniently located, the home is minutes to all amenities including town, the train and the highway. Access to the Bedford trail system is across from the driveway.
