Built circa 1923, this registered historic in-town estate has been totally renovated and updated by noted architect Al Bol. With attention to detail throughout, this exquisite mansion successfully marries classic appeal and modern amenities. English and perennial gardens, majestic hardwoods, expansive lawns and a stone terrace artfully frame the exterior. Clearly this is a home that will turn heads. Inside, an entry vestibule opens to an expansive through-hall foyer with broad staircase, guest closet and large entries to the adjoining rooms. The living room and dining room both enjoy the cozy comfort of fireplaces. Two more fireplaces are found in the master and second bedrooms for a total of four working fireplaces. Positioned off the dining room is a delightful sun room with radiant heated floors, windows on three sides and a deep bay window. A door leads to an expansive tiered deck. Adjacent to the living room is the family room or library. Wrapped in wood paneling, built-in cabinets and large windows distinguish this room. The centerpiece of this remarkable home is the designer kitchen. Wood cabinets are topped with granite counters, while professional quality appliances are arranged for easy access. The center island breakfast bar includes two new dishwashers and custom pendant lighting. The adjoining breakfast area sits adjacent to a wall of windows overlooking the tiered deck. Powder room, laundry and mud rooms are nearby, along with easy access to the garage. Located on the second and third levels are 6/7 bedrooms and 4 full baths. The master suite includes a spacious bedroom, one walk-in closet, one cedar closet and a luxurious master bath with spa tub and walk-in shower. The remaining bedrooms all enjoy substantial closet storage and lovely treetop views. There is a cedar closet on the third level, and eave storage accessed from the hallway. Additional storage space is found on the lower level, along with a recreation room, exercise room, mud room with outside access and a full bath. Outside, the property has been professionally landscaped, featuring open grassy space, gorgeous gardens and landscape lighting. The tiered deck is made for entertaining, and invites you to relax, unwind and dine al fresco. In this tranquil setting it is easy to forget that shopping, recreation, top rated schools and NYC commuter trains are only minutes from your front door. This distinctive property is truly a rare find. Perfectly positioned in the Hartshorn section, this is a fabulous opportunity to enjoy all Short Hills has to offer in comfort and supreme style.
