This exceptional, sun-filled private estate offers 6 bedrooms, 3.5 baths on nearly 1.4 beautifully landscaped acres overlooking a wooded ravine, seamlessly blending timeless mid-century craftsmanship with a thoughtfully designed modern expansion. Originally built in 1956 with remarkable quality and character, the home preserves its original hardwood floors and classic tilework while incorporating extensive high-end renovations throughout, creating a rare combination of warmth, luxury, functionality, and architectural distinction.
Designed for long-term livability, the home provides convenient ground-level access from both the front entrance and terrace level to the main living area. A significant 2004 addition introduced dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the park-like backyard, radiant heated floors, and hydronic baseboard heating, creating a comfortable and energy-efficient living environment year-round.
At the heart of the home is a spectacular chef's kitchen featuring an 8-burner gas range, double Wolf ovens, a paneled GE Monogram refrigerator, Cove dishwasher, Omega Dynasty custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a custom natural stone hearth, and radiant heated tile floors. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the surrounding living and dining spaces, all framed by breathtaking views of the private backyard and wooded ravine.
Filled with natural light, the adjoining living and dining areas are designed for both comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining. Step outside to the expansive 25' x 30' Ipe wood deck and covered patio, highlighted by a handcrafted, Italian-inspired natural stone pizza oven with a dramatic 9-foot floor-to-ceiling stone chimney, creating an exceptional setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, and year-round enjoyment.
The upper level features three spacious bedrooms and two beautifully renovated baths. The luxurious primary suite offers a spa-inspired bath and two custom Elfa-designed walk-in closets. A second bedroom enjoys access to an updated full bath, while the third bedroom—with picturesque wooded views—also serves beautifully as a home office and includes a generous walk-in closet. Scenic views of the private backyard and wooded ravine can be enjoyed from the upper-level bedrooms, while rich hardwood floors, solid wood plantation shutters, and custom architectural details—including a hand-welded staircase railing paired with Brazilian cherry stairs—further enhance the home's timeless appeal.
The walkout lower level offers three additional bedrooms, one full bath, one half bath, and a spacious family room featuring radiant heated designer tile floors, a fireplace, and tranquil views of the surrounding landscape.
