Private gated drive w/Belgian block accents, leads to this grand stone mansion w/slate roof and copper gutters. Cobblestone & a brick apron accent the entrance w/stately columns. The oval brick garden has a gorgeous fountain and charming bronze statuary. Fabulous lush landscaping, with specimen plantings, surround the property. This magnificent home boasts a huge Reception Foyer, stately Formal Rooms, 5 fireplaces, outstanding original custom millwork and gorgeous quarter-sawn hardwood flooring. The 6 bedrooms are ample sized and each has a private adjoining bath. The private maid's quarters or au-paire suite has a private entrance. The detached 5-car garage features a covered breezeway for direct access to the home. The floored garage upper level, accessed from the turret, offers the potential for additional living space, complete w/electricity and plumbing. Amid estate fencing, picturesque flagstone patios and walkways, sits a private in-ground pool. There are few estates of this level and quality left. It is in pristine condition, and has been lovingly maintained and updated for today's lifestyle, but with all the original features and millwork, it is truly reminiscent of a by-gone era with unparalleled craftsmanship that could not be duplicated today.
