Mature trees and flowering shrubs form a lovely border at the front of the estate. An attractive circular drive and forecourt welcomes arrival to the classically styled L-shaped Colonial residence. Four bays open to an attached garage. The crisp white facade features a columned portico with pediment above that creates both architectural interest and an inviting entry for visitors. Double glazed doors open into a front-to-back foyer with marble flooring and superb views of the covered terrace, gardens and water beyond. The graceful staircase sweeps to the second level.
Warmth and elegance are woven into polished oak flooring, custom millwork and refined finishes throughout. French doors lead to the library featuring floor-to-ceiling bookcases and handsome dentil crown molding. The formal dining room has an elegant ambiance for celebrations, and the spacious living room with fireplace has access to both gardens and swimming pool. The comfortable den is wrapped with attractive wood paneling. It features a fireplace, full bar and glass doors opening to the gardens and water beyond.
