Description

Down a long winding driveway between two newer homes at the end of a cul-de-sac is what began as the Caveny Estate’s 1880’s carriage house/chauffer’s quarters/bank barn. This was transformed and enhanced into today’s home of spacious rooms, thoughtfully designed for enjoyment and entertaining. Set on a modest hill, this historic-looking house overlooks the million-dollar, tree-lined view of the 1.4 acre, pastoral setting known as “HIDDEN VALLEY.” Original wood floors grace the entire main floor....Down a long winding driveway between two newer homes at the end of a cul-de-sac is what began as the Caveny Estate’s 1880’s carriage house/chauffer’s quarters/bank barn. This was transformed and enhanced into today’s home of spacious rooms, thoughtfully designed for enjoyment and entertaining. Set on a modest hill, this historic-looking house overlooks the million-dollar, tree-lined view of the 1.4 acre, pastoral setting known as “HIDDEN VALLEY.” Original wood floors grace the entire main floor. During the day, the light from Living Room beckons those entering the home’s front foyer. Like the Living Room, the Dining Room is an impressive room, also with a handsome fireplace, that can accommodate a large holiday gathering. The sheer volume in these two grand rooms create what friends and family may remember most about their good times here. A chef’s dream, this bright & modern Kitchen has an abundance of cabinetry and 21’ of marble countertop. It’s large enough for several cooks, with everything easily accessible – double wall ovens, countertop range, (2) dishwashers, farm sink and more. Open to both the Kitchen and Living Room is the outside room - a 20’ x 17’ deck - where company can gather or enjoy morning coffee as you take in the scenery & open skies above – without another soul in sight. The office features expansive views of these grounds and opens onto a side deck (with stairs to the yard below.) Down the hallway from the Dining Room is a hidden Powder Room and a staircase to the 2nd floor; at the front of the hallway is the main staircase. Upstairs are the (3) generous Bedrooms, (2) ceramic-tiled Bathrooms and the Hall Laundry. The sunny Main Bedroom area features a 12’ cathedral ceiling, 12 running feet of closets and a roomy modern Bathroom. The other two Bedrooms share treetop views as well as the back staircase and the Hall Bathroom. The basement areas are composed of several rooms. The main staircase leads to a large, fully finished walk-out Recreation Room and a large workshop - nearly as large as the Recreation Room - with its own sub-panel and outside entry. An original part of the basement is accessed from outside: two 19’ deep rooms that house the 4-zoned boiler and the main 200amp circuit breaker panel. See where the window bars remain between the rooms? You are standing in the former horse stables! The detached 2-car garage also has even more storage and is conveniently located only steps from the front door. The grounds have had many looks throughout the years where the Seller was raised. The tennis courts, like the long garden railroad is gone (a short track remains), but most of the property has remained the same over the 70+ years of family ownership – even the chicken coop! Come create your legacy in this incredible country retreat!
