Property Description
It is a rare pleasure to encounter a property such as Hawthorne, the very essence of elegance, evidenced at first approach, at the end of a drive with paver border and circular entrance. Set amidst rich landscaping, on 4.6 park-like acres, the property fulfills and surpasses all expectations. Lovingly built with an artistic eye and a reverence for classic design elements, this breathtaking home takes its character from English and American Georgian architecture. These estates are defined by their grandeur and grace, with rooms of impressive proportions that flow effortlessly, one to another, with wonderful attention to detail, including custom woodworking and hardware, and boasting all the accoutrements that make for ease of living. They are rare now, but this gracious home is an example of the best.
The timeless design features 10 foot ceilings and spacious rooms in more than 9,000 square feet of family living space on three floors. Inside, each turn reveals delightful architectural details. Fine materials and craftsmanship bespeak quality without compromise, while every element in design and execution is characterized by an understated elegance. The large entry foyer is the heart of the home, offering a hallway running front to back, and a choice to enter the casual areas, or choose the more formal rooms, all flanking the main hall.
Throughout, each room is bathed in light through oversized windows and interior and exterior transoms, skylights and multiple french doors to the private acreage beyond. A handsome library features arched mahogany double doors at entry and French doors to a side porch. The dining room, with fireplace, entertains large gatherings with ease. The exceptional gourmet kitchen was designed as the heart of the house, opening to the keeping room, family dining area and walls of windows affording views of the spectacular surroundings. Two butler pantry/wet bars are perfect for entertaining. A large family office, back foyer, beadboard-appointed mudroom and a 2nd stairway are a great way to connect and enjoy family time.
The breathtaking central staircase arrives at a second floor landing, where, steps away, the primary bedroom suite boasts a sitting room, sumptuous bath and balcony. Completing the rooms on this floor are 4 additional bedrooms, laundry room, study and a second floor family room with vaulted ceiling and custom built-ins.
Befitting the requirements of today’s family, without sacrificing luxury, there are rooms for every need or hobby, designed for large or small family gatherings. The lower level invites guests and family to relax and enjoy the game room, bar and exercise area. A large, lower level storage area and an oversized 3 car garage will accommodate your family vehicles, sports equipment and bicycles for the rails to trails at street’s end.
Tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac, this picturesque 4.6 acre property has carefully curated pine trees, boxwoods and flowering trees and gardens. Patios, porches and intimate gathering areas have been thoughtfully arranged, amidst landscaping that has enjoyed the embellishment of time. Perfect privacy may be difficult to find in today’s world, but Hawthorne may be as close to perfection as you will find.
