Wow, if this property isn’t a dream on the water come true, we don’t know what is! South River sunsets take center stage in this 6,700-square-foot signature residence with adjacent guest cottage.
A testament to good taste is evident the moment you walk through the door of this spacious, but charming, home that is rich in architectural detail and natural light throughout.
Visitors are welcomed to an awe-inspiring entry with its gorgeous staircase ascending to an open loft above and captivating river views straight ahead from the home’s main living area, which provides the ultimate in open plan living for gracious entertaining.
The all-white, traditional-style kitchen is every cook’s dream with a wealth of custom cabinetry throughout, some with glass fronts. The space is highlighted with gorgeous wood trim treatments and two center islands; one a prep island with sink and a warm, butcherblock top, and the other topped with iconic Danby marble that offers breakfast seating and additional storage options. Professional grade appliances live throughout, and this room’s natural light and water views make this space as beautiful as it is functional.
The kitchen opens to a panorama of views flowing from the adjacent breakfast room and a sunken extended seating area with fireplace and custom built-ins flanking each side. A charming, upholstered window seat runs the length of six, large vertical windows, perfect for daydreaming or night reading.
This level also features a formal living room with another wood-burning fireplace with built-ins and extended window seating, a formal dining room for special celebrations, and a first-floor guest suite that provides the convenience of aging in place when necessary.
Upstairs, the primary suite is spacious and dreamy with majestic views to the water, a separate work-out space, an incredible walk-in closet with gorgeous built-ins, and a bright, white, and beachy primary bath with a marble-topped dual vanity, soaking tub, and attractive wainscotting treatment.
Two additional bedrooms with enchanting water views that share a bath are located on this level.
The lower level of the home provides just one of the on-site options for family fun time with its large, informal gathering space, perfect for movie night.
Outdoors, the residence offers a generous pool and patio area overlooking the river. The property’s private pier will no doubt be the staging area for many a South River excursion.
