The unique property at 281 Winding Way offers a lifestyle without compromise: The magnificent 8,700+ sq. -ft., 6BR, 5/2BA residence combines classic 1925 stone construction with a full interior renovation that incorporates such contemporary conveniences as a smart house system and an elevator that reaches all five levels.

A slate roof & copper tops off the stately stone façade. Beyond the covered portico, you’re immersed in quality.

The chef’s kitchen, renovated more recently 2016, features variable width reclaimed oak floors, an island with seating and storage, white subway tile walls, and all-white custom cabinetry with black soakstone countertops. A palladium window adds a cheery touch over the extra-deep sink, and an oversized stainless-steel fridge/freezer, dual ovens and 6-burner range provide convenience no matter who is cooking or for how many. An arched doorway leads to the side yard. Off the kitchen, a sitting room has one of two powder rooms on this level and elevator access.
