Major Fresh Look! Main Bedroom Bath & Closets rebuilt from the studs up. Wallpaper removed and rooms freshly painted throughout the house. Wall to wall carpeting replaced. Don't miss your chance to experience a piece of history! This property includes an elegant, 3-story home and 2 bedroom guest suite/artist studio over the detached garage. This elegant Manor home, with 7 Fireplaces, was originally built by Samuel Williamson in 1885, originally part of a 400+ acre estate. A long sweeping drive leads up to the formal entrance, featuring the home's signature arched transom window, and majestic front door. The entry hall expands graciously from the formal living room with fireplace and covered terrace to the gorgeous dining room with adjoining sun-filled solarium and old-fashioned butler's pantry. The center of the home is the den which can be opened to add flow to the party or closed off for a quiet space to snuggle on the couch in front of the fire. The updated eat-in kitchen is just a few steps away through the back hall and includes professional grade stainless steel appliances, kitchen island with seating, granite counters and new built-in gas cooktop. The kitchen spans the back of the house and has access to adjacent laundry room and covered back porch. The architectural style of the home is evident in the staircases, whether it is the grand front staircase winding up to the 3rd floor emphasizing the elegance of the front of the home or the rear staircase connecting you from the top floor all the way to the basement, embodying the charm and coziness of the rear extension. There 9 bedrooms and 7 fireplaces in this home! At the top of the main staircase is the 2nd floor landing. The expansive primary bedroom has a fireplace, full bath with dressing room, and French doors opening onto a private balcony. There is also an adjoining full bath which could be shared by bedroom #2. The 3rd bedroom, with its own fireplace, overlooks the side yard and stone patio with fishpond and fountain. An office, also with its own fireplace, has easy access to the full hall bath. Toward the rear of the property there is a 4th bedroom and 5th bedroom, two generous cedar closets, and another full hall bath. The beautiful formal staircase winds its way up to the third floor and overlooks the 2nd floor landing. The third-floor hall is lined with built in storage and flanked on one side by the remaining 2 bedrooms, and 2 more bedrooms on the other (one of which contains the property's 7th fireplace), and a full hall bath. The basement has been partially finished leaving room for lounging and ample room for storage and the updated utilities. This property has been converted from oil to gas and features a high velocity AC system. The detached 6 car garage also features an artist studio/guest suite with 2-bedroom with full kitchen and bath. The inground pool has access to a ground-floor bathroom, laundry room and storage space in the garage. Not to be missed on the property tour is the hidden gem. Take a stroll past the fountain and look for the ducks. They are marking the path down to a charming vignette of a shingled roof gazebo overlooking the pond. This property spans all the way to Morris Ave.
