There is an understated elegance that envelops you as you begin to experience this custom 1930's whitewashed stone Colonial. Tucked into the gently sloping property, it's almost hidden from the road. There is a circular driveway surrounded by stone retaining walls that contain an abundance of perennial gardens & shrubbery, adding to the property's seclusion. The attached 2-car garage is turned towards the entry, providing easy access yet enhancing the curb appeal by placing an attractive stone fa~ade towards the road. A simple pent roof porch greets you as you enter the central hall. Tucked to the right is the powder room & large hall closet. It's the little details that you will admire, like the original wrought iron hardware, chair rails, crown moldings and the random-width, pegged Oak flooring. With the front to back hallway, the rear door provides a perfect frame to the sweeping views down to the valley beyond. One feels like they are in a private oasis by the positioning of all the surrounding houses, with a vast amount of open space beyond the rear yard. The living room has a gracious stone fireplace and access to the covered side porch. The dining room flanks the other side of the entry hall with a huge picture window overlooking the rear grounds (and those deep windowsills that are so prevalent in stone homes!). A breakfast room (with pantry & china closets) is located just before the beautifully remodeled kitchen. Perfectly designed to respect the original architecture, it is a classic interpretation of a Colonial kitchen. Lovely details abound from the reclaimed, random-width heart pine floors to the beadboard ceiling & backsplash to the green soapstone counters. Crownpoint cabinetry (painted on the exterior walls, quarter-sawn Oak on the island) extends into the mudroom as well. Two fridge drawers supplement the Sub-Zero. A Wolf cooktop, oven & convection microwave/oven & Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawers complete the appliance package. The full basement provides a family room (with the 2nd fireplace) that is the same size as the living room, another large room, storage & the laundry. The master suite occupies the space over the living room. Two large bedrooms are off the main hall along with the 2nd bathroom while the 4th bedroom (en-suite) is accessed directly from the rear staircase (or through one of the bedrooms). It's a nature-lover's paradise outside with an abundance of birds, deer, rabbits & other critters to enjoy. Welcome Home!!!
