Property Description
Remarkable architectural integrity with beautifully considered modern updates defines this stately south-facing colonial, enhanced by sweeping New York City skyline views and extraordinary outdoor living. A brick herringbone walk welcomes you inside, while the home's elevated setting takes full advantage of its skyline views and terraced outdoor spaces. High ceilings, a dramatic central staircase rising through three floors, intricate millwork, beamed ceilings, leaded and transom windows, original doors and hardware, fireplaces and built-ins preserve the home's singular character. The kitchen is appointed with marble counters, inset cabinetry, a six-burner Aga gas range, dishwasher drawers and a separate pantry. Seven bedrooms and 5.1 baths provide exceptional space, complemented by a finished above grade lower level with a full bath, laundry and recreation room convenient to the pool. Outside mature landscaping surrounds a heated saltwater gunite pool, bluestone patios and a pergola seating and dining area with irrigation, landscape lighting and NYC skyline views providing a dramatic backdrop. A heated garage offers an unforgettable bar and game day retreat. Ideally located near top-rated schools, with midtown direct train service to NYC, convenient access to the Garden State Parkway and close proximity to Newark Airport. A rare union of architectural legacy, modern comfort and exceptional outdoor living- all framed by NYC skyline views that never become ordinary!
