Set behind classic stone walls on over an acre of beautifully curated grounds, this remarkable residence offers more than 6,000 square feet of refined living where period craftsmanship and modern comfort exist in perfect harmony. Grand proportions, soaring ceilings, intricate millwork, hardwood floors, and eight marble fireplaces showcase the elegance of a bygone era, while thoughtfully updated spaces create an effortless home for today’s lifestyle. A legal apartment and impressive three-story barn provide exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, creative pursuits, or income potential. Outside, winding garden paths lead through perennial, herb, rock, and shade gardens, creating an estate-like setting that feels both private and timeless.
