This custom designed estate is delicately placed to compliment the beauty of the land while also considering how to minimize the impact on the environment and reduce utility costs by use of a 10kW solar electricity generator (net metered), a 3000-gallon rainwater management system, geothermal heat pump and solar water heater. Almost 5000 finished s.f. using $530 in electric during the prior year. The main home features 4 BR/3.5 baths with a connecting guest/caretaker apartment adding another full BR/BA in a self-contained living unit with a private entrance. The gently winding driveway descends to the front courtyard where you may access both living units and the oversized 2-car garage. Follow the yard around to the back to enjoy the full-length Trex deck, hot tub, flagstone patios, quaint waterfall, fenced salt water in-ground pool with a patio and gazebo and a retreat studio/extra storage building at the rear. Moving inside you are greeted by the wood inlay designed hardwood foyer with large coat closet and light sconces lining the foyer and center hall. Continue into the great room featuring multiple built-in bookcases and cabinets, stone fireplace and surround, beamed vaulted ceiling and doorways to the back deck and formal dining room. The formal dining room features three sets of double doors to control access from the great room, foyer and kitchen. The gourmet kitchen has granite countertops and breakfast bar, tiled back splash, recessed lighting, stainless appliances, wall oven and microwave, glass front upper cabinets with display lighting. Flowing from the kitchen into the generous breakfast room with pantry and patio door. Just inside from the garage are the convenient laundry area, mudroom with individual coat/shoe racks, and the butler office with two workstations. Upstairs features the master suite with a separate sitting/dressing room, double walk-in closets with integrated shelving and drawers, two vanities, water closet, tub, glass-front shower with tile surround and double shower heads. The other two bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bathroom. There is a connecting inside entrance to the guest/caretaker apartment with a full living area, kitchen and dining space, laundry room, full bath and bedroom. With inside and private outside entrances the apartment is self-contained or can easily become an extension of the main house. The terrace level adds a British style pub/den, family room, and an additional bedroom with full bath. Extra mechanical and storage rooms complete the level. There are links for the drone tour and a 360-degree walkthru tour of the home. Attached are documents with details on all the special features, history, and floor plans.
