A large family room has French doors that open to the outside, adjacent to the country kitchen with glass-paned cabinetry, center island with pet nook, state-of-the-art appliances including cooktop and warming drawer, and attached mudroom leading to al-fresco dining areas. Nearby, the formal dining room includes temperature-controlled wine storage, and a proper wood-paneled wet bar is configured with a tasting ledge seating three.

Upstairs, the owner's wing has a sitting area with traditional fireplace and opens to its own private terrace overlooking the rear grounds. Its en-suite bathroom features a dual-sink vanity with makeup desk and separate tub and shower, and a walk-in closet is appointed with custom built-ins. A beautiful junior primary bedroom includes soaring vaulted ceilings and a fireplace with elegant marble mantle.

There is even a bonus television/card room with a bathroom and dry sauna. Outside, curated park-like grounds offer endless special moments for rejuvenation and hosting numerous party guests in a magical setting. Enjoy an outdoor living room with wood-burning fireplace and motorized patio shades, an outdoor dining room, and sprawling grassy lawn.
