Property Details
One of the most exceptional homes in Chestnut Hill, this timeless six bedroom, five full and two half bath residence offers stylish, modern living behind a traditional façade. Meticulously renovated in 2020, this home has been utterly transformed, blending stunning design with a crisp contemporary aesthetic, bespoke details, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Situated on a spectacular 0.67-acre landscaped lot, this property offers a quiet estate setting close to the conveniences of city living.
Extending over 8,000 square feet, this home was designed for large-scale entertaining, combining sophistication and elegance with family comfort. This extraordinary residence delivers a thoughtful live-work-play balance with all of the comforts expected from a high-end renovation. The heart of the house features a dramatic two-story foyer that connects the first floor’s living spaces. The spacious living room with built-ins and fireplace opens to a grand dining room with bay window and soaring ceilings.
Located through french doors off the entry foyer, is a sophisticated study lined with large windows and custom built-ins. The family ‘hub’ includes a bright state-of-the-art kitchen with an oversized island, ample cabinet space, and adjoining eat-in. The kitchen flows directly into a sun-filled family room with fireplace, bow windows, and custom-built bookshelves. The expansive layout of the living and kitchen area is accented by south-facing doors and windows allowing direct access to the exterior and filling the rooms with abundant natural light. Off the kitchen is a window-lined room that can function as office space or kid’s playroom. A cubby-lined mudroom is conveniently located next to the side entrance and attached 3-car garage. Two half baths complete this floor.
The central staircase leads up to the second level. The primary wing includes a serene bedroom, a spa-like bathroom, and sitting room. An office, which can function as an additional dressing room, is located off of the primary bedroom. A large en-suite bedroom, two spacious bedrooms connected by a ‘jack-n-jill’ bath, and laundry room are also located on this floor. This level is complete with a separate wing well suited for au-pair or guests, and features a kitchenette, living space, and bedroom with full bath. The finished basement provides impressive, flexible living space, including a window-lined bedroom, full bathroom, wine cellar, and space to create a media room or professional gym.
The home’s outdoor oasis has been beautifully landscaped providing ultimate privacy. The easy indoor/outdoor access, large patio, expansive level yard, and southern exposure offers an ideal setting for ‘al fresco’ entertaining and a welcomed escape from the city while providing convenient access.
This sought-after neighborhood is steps to the “The Street” offering a choice of fantastic restaurants, shops, grocery, and entertainment.
