Description

A true estate setting this close to town, nestled into the quietest corner of the Western Section, is simply unparalleled. Princeton-educated architect Rolf Bauhan, largely responsible for the refined aesthetic for which the area is known, designed this brick manor on rolling land named Lone Tree Farm. The bucolic atmosphere remains with sweeping front lawns, an English garden and a newly rebuilt pool spread out on 3.43 acres. A covered terrace detailed with scrolling wrought iron surveys the grounds amid the soothing trickle of working fountains. While this breathtaking home is timeless in style and retains a trove of authentic original features, systems are state-of-the-art, metal roofs are brand new and renovations include a custom kitchen, a perfectly polished primary bath and high-end lighting chosen by a creative designer with a keen eye for detail. Carved wood mantels, patinated brass hardware and elaborate moldings are mostly original and it's nearly impossible to distinguish which embellishments were just added. Both the family and dining rooms are paneled for an enveloping atmosphere during evening gatherings, while other spaces glow in soft shades of white. Even utilitarian areas have special touches, like whimsical tiles dotting the highly functional mudroom, a homework/craft area and the newly equipped laundry room. Only the best was considered for the kitchen, where handmade inset cabinetry and seamless slabs of marble stand the test of time and an Aga induction range and full-sized refrigeration wow even the most ambitious cooks. Atop the gracious main staircase are three large suites that proudly retain antique bath fixtures, tiling and marble baseboards meticulously restored along with inset cabinets for hidden storage. The primary suite includes a dreamy dressing room between the custom closet and Calcutta marble bath with floating vanity and Waterworks fixtures. Comfortable guest accommodations are down the hall accessible by a separate staircase. A spot for memorable sleepovers or a sanctum for the resident genius awaits discovery in the attic. Mere words can not capture all the magic to be found at Lone Tree Manor. Experiencing it in-person is a must!
