For the past 53 years, the home of internationally renowned architect Kevin Roche and family, this magnificent 6 bedroom, 4.5 bath stunning home, built originally as part of the Wm. P. Blake estate, is now ready to welcome its next owners. Experience wonderful, warm spaces, bookcases everywhere and dramatic indoor/outdoor vistas. Admire the amazing Brazilian rosewood herring-boned pattern floors, expansive windows and a timeless blend of modern architectural elements with gorgeous stucco and stone work. The location gives you precious privacy and yet proximity to everything New Haven area has to offer - world class museums, parks, restaurants and educational centers. Step into a gracious foyer with French doors leading to the large living room (gas FP) or step into the cozy library. The chef's kitchen is just to the left with its 6-burner Dacor stove and SubZero refrigerator and connects to the elegant dining room via a pantry/ wet bar. The breakfast room is exactly right with the large laundry room (more storage! extra refrigerator!) off to one side. The wide central staircase leads up to 4 bedrooms including a spacious master suite + two more full bathrooms - au pair possibilities here. Also on this floor is an amazing home office space - more important now than ever. The third floor has 2 more bedrooms, another full bathroom, 3 huge walk-in closets (one cedar!) and an artist's atelier/studio. A unique and special property.
