A custom-built brick front Colonial in Northwest Estates, one of Moorestown?s most sought-after neighborhoods, is newly offered by the original owners. Expanded & upgraded, this 5,900 sq.ft. luxury residence on .71-acre is centrally located near parks, schools, restaurants, golf, swim and tennis clubs & I-95 for a 15-mile drive to Philadelphia. Northwest Estates is a refined community of architecturally-nuanced homes on low traffic streets offering sidewalks for biking & walking. A custom builder created this home in 1994, and renovations in 2003 increased the footprint of the designer kitchen and family room, two bedrooms connected by a full bath and enhancements in an incredible finished lower level. The result is a totally customized five bedroom, five full and two half bath floor plan, where thoughtful design features assure a comfortable, sophisticated lifestyle that's ideal for grand or intimate gatherings. Highlights of the layout include gleaming hardwood & limestone floors, ornate millwork, two fireplaces, transom-topped windows, high ceilings, custom built-ins and designer lighting. Special occasions are even more memorable in the elegant living room where a white wood mantle brick fireplace creates a sophisticated focal point, while intricate crown dentil & chair rail moldings extend into the formal dining room illuminated by a sparkling chandelier and wall sconces. In the expanded chef's kitchen, outstanding features include a custom-designed floor-to-ceiling bay window filling the space with sunlight, soaring 12ft ceilings, limestone floors, an enormous center island with seating for five, custom cabinetry and granite countertops, a roomy walk-in pantry and upper-end stainless steel appliances including a cooktop with two ovens plus a built-in microwave. The reconfigured family room is set under towering arched cathedral ceilings, while a handsome built-in wall unit, dramatic window wall and fireplace surrounded by a carved mantle are impressive design elements. A home office lined in custom-built-ins is spacious enough to be used as a first floor guest bedroom served by a nearby powder room. The mudroom area contains a built-in bench/coat rack & a second powder room. Upstairs, the gracious master suite has two huge walk-in closets with wardrobe organizing built-ins, a dressing area and sumptuous bath featuring a tile-framed soaking tub and walk-in clear glass enclosed shower. Two additional bedrooms each adjoin a private, full bath. Bedrooms 4 & 5 are generously-sized with high arched ceilings, walk-in-closets & a fabulous full bath connecting them. This bath has an extra-large glass door shower & double sink vanity. Homeschool options are effortless in a cleverly-designed study nook with three built-in desks and storage cabinetry. Completing the second story is a well-equipped laundry rm offering cabinets & a sink. An enormous walk-up 3rd story storage rm is accessed from this level that can easily be finished for add living space. Of special note is the daylight finished lower level designed with a rustic mountain lodge aesthetic which includes warmly-toned wood beadboard paneling & trim, a dramatic fieldstone wall, extra-large windows for natural light & 9ft ceilings. A theater area with built-in bench seating, game area & a kitchenette featuring a farmhouse sink, Sub-Zero refrigerator, 2 dishwasher drawers & granite counters are entertainment-friendly amenities. There is also an exercise rm or 6th bedroom/guestroom, full bath with shower & custom granite-topped vanity featuring a vessel sink on this level, plus expansive storage rms with built-ins. Additional storage options are found in the attached two-and-one-half car garage.
