A high perch in a gorgeous neighborhood within a stone?s throw of the Bedens Brook Club enhances the stately character of this red brick beauty with modern Georgian elements. The landscaped grounds cover 1.73 acres, but a walled stone patio and garden offer a more intimate setting to entertain and share meals under the stars. Current owners revealed a savvy eye when adding antiqued brass designer light fixtures and hardware throughout, as well as continuing beautifully finished hardwood floors up to the third level. Whether working from home or not, everyone will appreciate the choice of 2 studies: one is bright and energizing, the other is rich with polished wood, and a wet bar. Both have fireplaces and pairs of French doors. A third fireplace clad in stone warms the newly painted family room. More fresh whites and neutrals enliven the kitchen with a new wine fridge and handy beverage station. The upstairs layout is flexible and ideal for both playdates and guests with a lounge area, bedroom and full bath atop the stylishly carpeted back stairs. There are 6 bedrooms and 4.5 baths in total, including the roomy, wainscot-wrapped main suite with dressing area and walk-in closet between the sunny, spacious bath. A new cedar shake roof is the icing on the cake!
