Spectacular Harding Township Contemporary Form follows function effortlessly in a custom-built contemporary that is a true design masterpiece. The artful use of glass to frame lush views unites architecture and nature in a seamless way, while the sun-splashed open floor plan of approximately 6,000 square-feet displays an innovative use of space. This modernist home offers six bedrooms, six full baths and two powder rooms as well as an attached four-car garage. Situated at the end of a cul de sac on 3.74 acres of privacy, the setting includes green lawns, leafy woodlands and an expansive deck spanning the rear of the home. Approached by a circular paved drive, the wood and stone-accented residence features striking architectural lines punctuated by towering windows and sharply angled rooflines. A custom-designed double door entrance reveals the vaulted ceiling foyer illuminated by art glass wall sconces. Straight ahead, the dramatic great room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace which is flanked by sets of sliding glass doors to the deck. Natural light fills this generous space detailed with vaulted ceilings, a chrome-accented bar area, hardwood floors, a wall of media and display cabinetry and an overlook from the gallery hallway above. Nearby is an elaborate mirrored powder room. Special occasions in the Zen-like dining room bring entertaining to a whole new level; the towering ceilings, recessed lighting and hardwood floors combine beautifully in this elegant room. Casual get-togethers are easily hosted in the kitchen's dining area and fireside family room, both connected to the updated center island kitchen that was completely renovated with new appliances and cabinetry. It presents granite countertops, a tile backsplash, upgraded wood cabinets, hardwood floors and a newer collection of stainless steel and paneled appliances. The family room offers a sunny window wall, access to the deck, a handsome brick fireplace edged by a wood mantle, cathedral ceilings and a skylight. Also on the main floor are spacious master and guest suites. The sophisticated master bedroom has a modern fireplace, two sets of sliding glass doors to the deck, a wall of built-in cabinets, sitting area and serene views of the peaceful grounds. A marble-accented master bath contains a platform tub tucked under a picture window and separate shower. In the three-room guest suite, a bedroom adjoins the vaulted ceiling sitting room with tall windows and chair rail moldings as well as an extra-large bath. The staircase set inside a windowed tower ascends to the second level gallery for access to additional bedrooms and baths as well as a private home office. That same staircase serves a beautifully finished lower level offering a craft or hobby room, mirrored exercise room, wine storage room, bedroom and full bath. This exceptional contemporary is an open, airy residence providing ample space for entertaining, relaxation and stylish everyday living. Its prime location in pastoral Harding Township is minutes from Midtown Direct trains to Manhattan, fine dining, excellent shopping, premier schools and a network of local and interstate highways.
