Not all for sale properties come up on Zillow, so add another search engine if you want to see everything. This utterly unique home has soaring ceilings, clerestory windows, indoor water features and a koi pond, a two car garage with hydraulic lift, a basement with a home gym and hobby shop, and the prettiest grounds in town. This 3702 sf home features a private owners suite on one wing of the house, and on the other wing, two bedrooms and a suite. You'll also find a wine cellar capable of housing 1500 bottles of wine, a mystery bookshelf, and a command center office with soaring views. As if that wasn't enough, this home has custom cabinetry, vintage built-ins, spacious REMODELED bathrooms by Cederburg designs, massive closets and loads of storage. It's shocking when you consider that you could have all this AND walk a back path to the public library, connect to the trails around town, ride your bike to Whole Foods, or take the free bus for a few minutes into campus. You're close to it ALL here, but have a beautiful chunk of land. Whether you always dreamed of throwing Gatsby-like parties or enjoying a quiet respite in your sexy palace of a home, 1601 Halifax has you covered.
