The winding drive takes you deep into the woods. The land suddenly opens to a beautifully landscaped center hall colonial, renovated by acclaimed local architect James Crisp. The house is surrounded on two sides by a broad wrap-around porch with several areas to entertain or to sit and enjoy the thickly trunked trees, two ponds and expansive lawn. When you step inside, you’re immediately drawn into the heart of the house: a large, inviting living room flanked by windows and French doors that lead to the porch. The floor plan is graceful and open, with the center hall reaching to a back flagstone patio; to the right is a warm and spacious dining room which opens onto a bright eat-in kitchen. Beyond the kitchen, is a sunken family room, with French doors, also leading to the back patio, ideal for outdoor dining. Off of the kitchen is a pantry that leads to a mudroom entrance.Upstairs are 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths. Included among the bedrooms is a master suite with full bath, windowed walk-in closet and office, and a balcony that overlooks the lawn, pool, ponds, and woods. The other 4 bedrooms are roomy and bright. The basement below offers an additional play space, laundry, and storage. The flagstone patio leads down to an enclosed gunite pool, edged in flowers. Further back on the property are the two ponds, complete with water lilies, frogs, a small waterfall, and a rustic wooden bridge. It is a sublimely peaceful retreat.
