Forged upon a sprawling landscape of 29 acres within highly coveted Charlestown Township, rests this timeless family estate. Located a stone’s throw from active equestrian farms, the grounds consist of expansive fields which accentuate the main house, featuring 11,682 SF of luxurious, yet functional, living space. Behold an amazing bonus: a 2-story, 3780 SF redeveloped barn featuring a full-court basketball court, full bathroom, and a professional woodcraftsman workshop on the lower level. This estate is the pinnacle of sophisticated, yet functional architecture. Upon arrival through the main gated entrance, a tree-lined drive provides a breathtaking view of the grounds while welcoming you to your private sanctuary. Make your grand entrance into the majestic foyer, with its sight lines through to the back of the home and out onto the stone patio, and begin to absorb the beautiful design touches, including: an elegantly curved staircase, marvelous wood floor inlays with marble tile accents, entryways with wonderful arches, intricate millwork and crown moldings, stunning built-ins, and tray ceilings with cove lighting. Flanking the entry are the formal living and dining rooms. The living room boasts the first of two fireplaces on this level, as well as an accompanying piano room, while the dining room, with its built-in buffet and China cabinet, transitions to a butler’s pantry equipped with a sink and full-sized dishwasher.

Moving through the main hall you will pass a secondary staircase, which provides unencumbered access from the basement level to the second-floor bedrooms. The spacious, yet cozy, family room awaits, which shares the second fireplace with the bright and expansive eat-in kitchen, where a wealth of windows, paired with the ample custom white cabinetry, create the sun-filled heart of this home. Seamlessly integrated appliances, dual refrigerators and wall ovens positioned around the large center island, and a walk-in pantry set the stage for serving up large family gatherings.
