About the Home

Step into a rare offering that beautifully captures the essence of classic New England living-a stately 1880s residence set in one of the Gold Coast's most desirable towns. South-facing and beautifully sited on over 1/2 acre, this gracious home offers more than 6,100 sqft of character, elegance, and modern comfort. From the grand living room with its soaring ceiling to the warmth of 3 fireplaces and hardwood flooring throughout, the home is rich with architectural detail. Bow windows, natural wood beams, and intricate moldings create a timeless sense of craftsmanship that is rarely found today. Every room tells a story while offering spaces designed for both everyday living and memorable entertaining. Host elegant gatherings in the formal dining room, relax in the sun-filled garden room with heated slate floors, or unwind in the inviting family room. The home's warmth and charm are felt throughout, yet thoughtful updates ensure modern comfort, including newer central air, boiler, natural gas conversion, and integrated sound throughout the main living areas, primary suite, and veranda. The gourmet kitchen is thoughtfully designed, featuring a large center island, 6 burner gas range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, warming drawer & a wet bar. A back staircase provides convenient access to the upper level. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with multiple spaces for quiet or lively gatherings. Front and back driveways. This home is a true blend of heritage, elegance and modern luxury.
