The richly appointed smoking room features a coffered ceiling, wood paneling, and built-in bookcases, while the sunroom, den, and spacious side porch offer a range of relaxing retreats. The chef's kitchen boasts an eat-in area, butler's pantry, and direct access to multiple dining and gathering spaces, including covered back decks on both levels. An elevator provides easy access to all floors. The luxurious primary suite is its own private retreat, complete with his-and-hers custom walk-in closets, dual bathrooms, a private exercise room, and access to the upper-level porch. Additional features include: Home office, basement level with wine cellar, gym, two half baths, walk-in cooler, laundry facilities, utility room, and two garage bays, a 1950 square feet guest house with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 1 half bath, private pool surrounded by lush landscaping, 3-car detached garage, greenhouse for gardeners and hobbyists and a unique train room in the finished attic-ideal for collectors or creatives.
