Public Remarks: Tucked among mature trees on a private 2.47-acre lot in a coveted in-town location, this stately residence is a rare offering--one of just five homes in an intimate private subdivision. Cherished by the same family for 30 years, it has been meticulously cared for and thoughtfully lived in. Inside, generous proportions and refined details set the tone: soaring ceilings, rich built-ins, and authentic stone fireplaces create warmth and gravitas. The flexible, multi-generational layout features 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, including three true primary suites--ideal for guests, extended family, or luxe private retreats. Sunlight pours through abundant windows, framing serene views of woodland and curated landscaping throughout the home. The finished basement functions as its own living level with two bedrooms, a full bath, a fully equipped kitchen, and a welcoming den anchored by a stone fireplace flanked by custom shelving--perfect for hosting, hobbies, or long-term stays. Designed for gathering and everyday comfort, this home's scale invites memorable moments. A circle driveway gracefully approaches the façade, where grand columns introduce a large covered front porch built for conversation and relaxation with ample seating. From quiet mornings with coffee to lively evenings with friends, the outdoor spaces are as inviting as the interiors. A rare blend of privacy, prestige, and practicality--stately yet welcoming, secluded yet central--this is a forever home meant to be shared, entertained in, and truly lived in.
