Description
A picture-perfect classic North Shore custom home filled with elegance & coastal New England charm by notable architect Paul Konstant. Graceful arched windows and a welcoming columned entrance create a storybook exterior reminiscent of a Nantucket retreat. Step inside to the blue stone accented foyer where soaring ceiling, crisp tailored millwork and double-hung Marvin windows set the tone for beautifully scaled, light-filled interiors. The sun-drenched living room is anchored by a double-sided stone fireplace with a classic honed black granite surround, seamlessly connecting to the formal dining room. Picturesque views of the front gardens are just beyond the double set french door stepping out bluestone patio with pergola. Continue through the butler's pantry, which doubles as the perfect coffee/smoothie station and command center before entering the quintessential New England-inspired white Chef's kitchen. A huge island with seating, expansive honed soapstone countertops, original Shaw farm sink, Visual Comfort bronzed brass pendants, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances a walk-in pantry deliver the perfect balance of beauty with function. A cozy built-in breakfast booth overlooks the gardens while the adjoining family room, complete with its own stone fireplace, offers a warm and inviting retreat-just steps from the heart of the home. A second powder room off the mudroom has side door access to the bluestone patio and lush gardens, all beautifully tucked inside by classic white lattice fencing. Ascend to the second floor, where the sitting room welcomes you with beautifully detailed architectural doors and custom casings carry the home's craftsmanship throughout.
