Property Description

Set on a beautifully landscaped acre in the coveted Murray Hill estate section of Heathcote, this classic 1927 Colonial, completely reimagined and redesigned in 2003 by Monica Fried Design, is a six-bedroom, 7,700-square-foot residence of exceptional scale and livability. The grounds, designed by James Doyle Design Associates, begin with a gravel drive, sweeping lawn, and layered gardens connected by flagstone walkways. The rear property centers around an architecturally designed pool with integrated hot tub and electric cover, surrounded by expansive stone terraces, an outdoor kitchen and dining area with a stone gas fireplace, and a built-in TV lounge - creating a seamless extension of the home for effortless entertaining. Hydrangea borders, perennial gardens, and sculpted hedges frame the setting, while beautifully executed stonework adds structure and refinement throughout. Front and backyard landscape lighting creates an inviting ambiance for evening entertaining. Inside, the entertaining flow is just as impressive. The Christopher Peacock chef's kitchen anchors the main level and features three sinks, two dishwashers, Sub-Zero refrigeration, a wine fridge, warming drawer, pull-out pantry, and six-burner Wolf range with Thermador ovens. A separate breakfast room includes a built-in desk area, custom cabinetry, refrigerator drawers, and sliding doors that open directly to the outdoor built-in BBQ and dining terrace. The formal entertaining rooms are both warm and expansive: a gracious dining room with French doors to the patio flows seamlessly into a magnificent living room with triple-exposure windows, a stone fireplace, and abundant natural light. Walls of windows frame the surrounding foliage, filling the space with brightness and beautiful views. The living room continues into a refined study with custom built-ins and French doors that open to a private terrace. A first-floor guest suite adds flexibility for visitors. Upstairs, the second floor offers five bedrooms and four full bathrooms, including French doors that open to a wonderful balcony overlooking the private backyard, along with a laundry room and generous storage. The third floor features a recreation room with a half bathroom and bar kitchen, complete with a dishwasher, wine fridge, and ample storage. The fully finished lower level offers 9-foot ceilings, a gym, half bath, second laundry room, and wine cellar. Modern systems include a Lutron lighting system throughout, six-zone Honeywell HVAC system with remote programming capability, a driveway alarm, and whole-house generator. Private and estate-like in scale, this home delivers exceptional indoor-outdoor living in one of Heathcote's most sought-after enclaves.
