Prominently located in Observatory Circle, the legendary “Spy House” has been fully reimagined through a comprehensive 2025 restoration - merging its intriguing past with a luxurious, contemporary design. The main residence offers five bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths across four levels of finely crafted living space. A separate over-garage apartment provides a complete one-bedroom suite with its own kitchen, bath, and private entrance. A dramatic foyer with white oak herringbone floors and a hidden door sets the tone for the home’s rich architectural detailing. Expansive living and dining rooms feature nine-foot ceilings, a quartz-clad fireplace, custom wet bar, built-ins, and a 30-foot window wall. The chef’s kitchen showcases professional-grade appliances, two-tone cabinetry, Cristallo quartzite counters, a custom hood, and statement lighting. A convenient powder room completes this floor. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a 16' x 19' bedroom, two walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath of Terrazzo Italy Sacra Bianco and Calacatta Fioressa quartz. An additional ensuite bedroom and laundry room complete the second floor. The third floor houses two more ensuite bedrooms. The terrace level provides a media/lounge space with a Cambria Woodcroft wet bar, a guest suite, a mudroom and laundry suite, and a hidden 1940s wine cellar concealed behind a custom bookcase. The ADU echoes the home’s elevated finishes with its own full kitchen, bath, and bedroom suite. The expansive outdoor areas include a screened porch, connecting deck, flagstone terrace, and side yard, with an unparalleled indoor-outdoor flow. Completely renewed, The Spy House stands as a rare blend of history, architecture, and modern craftsmanship—ready for its next chapter. This is a home without compromise!
