Description

Set on more than five beautifully landscaped acres, this William Thompson-designed Cape has the kind of setting that instantly slows the pace. A long driveway winds past a green meadow and triple-rail fencing before arriving at a gravel court edged by lush garden beds. Out back, expansive bluestone terraces, a pool, and a spa create a backdrop for summer days that will be hard to leave behind. The house has been extensively renovated, with nearly every space thoughtfully updated while preserving the charm, proportions, and architectural details that make Thompson's homes so enduringly appealing. It feels fresh and current without losing its sense of history. A wide center hall opens to beautifully scaled formal rooms, while the kitchen is designed for both serious cooking and casual gatherings, with Carrara marble countertops, Wolf appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, wine storage, and glass doors leading directly to the terrace. The family room is full of character, with a whitewashed vaulted and beamed ceiling, a brick fireplace, and more doors opening to the outdoors. On warm days, it will be easy to move between the kitchen, family room, pool, and patio without ever feeling disconnected from the action. The primary suite occupies its own wing and unfolds naturally from library to bedroom to dressing room with two walk in closets and bath. Doors open directly near the pool area, making early-morning swims and late-night dips equally tempting. Upstairs, every bedroom with their own updated bath, and a handy laundry room are some of many thoughtful improvements made throughout the home. Few houses manage to feel both gracious and relaxed at the same time, but this one does exactly that!
