It’s tempting to call this residence “The Castle”—with its turreted stone corner capped in copper—but even that title can’t capture the refinement and craftsmanship within.
From the moment you step inside, a marble inlay set within gleaming hardwood floors and a stunning crystal chandelier create an unforgettable first impression. A grand circular staircase spirals gracefully through the turret, showcasing exquisite millwork, solid-core maple doors, and even a private elevator.
The formal dining room exudes timeless elegance with a second chandelier, rich hardwood cornices, paneled walls, and a built-in service bar complete with a wine cooler—perfect for entertaining.
The living room soars with dramatic height, anchored by a full-height imported limestone fireplace framed by sweeping draperies. To the left, the gourmet kitchen impresses with heated marble floors, custom maple cabinetry, granite countertops, and a large island adorned with hand-carved maple corbels. A matching limestone range hood and a mother-of-pearl backsplash add a luxurious touch, all beneath a custom plaster ceiling.
Double French doors open to a versatile main-floor office—private when needed, open when desired—adorned with the same bronze hardware featured throughout the home. A stylish powder room with a black seashell backsplash and agate stone sink, a walk-in pantry, and a well-appointed laundry room with garage access complete the main level.
Upstairs, a custom plaster ceiling and another dazzling chandelier crown the landing, overlooking both the grand foyer and living room below. The master suite is a serene retreat featuring custom millwork, a two-sided fireplace, and a luxurious ensuite with maple cabinetry, a jetted tub, and an expansive tile shower with a circular inlaid medallion. The custom walk-in closet offers impeccable organization and design.
Three additional bedrooms each feature walk-in closets. Two share a beautifully detailed Jack-and-Jill bathroom, while the third enjoys a private ensuite.
Descending the circular staircase, the lower level reveals another showpiece—a striking limestone waterfall wall. The spacious family room centers around the home’s third fireplace and a full wet bar, with nearby access to the wine room. A fifth bedroom with walk-in closet and a four-piece bath provide comfort for guests or extended family.
Outside, a sun-soaked south-facing yard offers privacy and elegance with its stone fireplace and full fencing. A heated triple-car garage and generous driveway complete this extraordinary home.
