This sophisticated renovation by Michael Ladisic of the original 2003 home designed by Yong Pak is a timeless masterpiece. Towering ceilings, dramatic details, windows and front door imported from Belgium, gorgeous re-claimed hardwood floors, and custom refinements too numerous to mention define every inch of this exceptional home. In 2018, Ladisic, with the help of designer Nancy Race, oversaw the transformation of the second floor into an incredible owner's suite, featuring a fabulous fireside bedroom, stunning marble bath, and unprecedented, custom-fitted walk-in closet. That same year the kitchen was renovated to the highest level of discernment, including brass fixtures, custom iron windows, steam oven, warming drawer, La Cornue 5 burner gas range, one-of-a-kind range hood, double Miele dishwashers, and walk-in pantry with antique French doors. Additionally, the property includes a soaring stone-floored entrance hall, a great room with a huge antique fireplace which is open to the light-filled dining room, a fireside family room which is open to the kitchen, and a breakfast room overlooking the covered patio. There are also two ensuite guest bedrooms on the main floor, one an optional primary suite with decorative fireplace. Off of the entrance hall there is a powder room and a beverage center. The basement is finished with a large built-in wine refrigerator, a full bath and bedroom, lots of storage, and entry to the two-car garage. Additionally, the property boasts an elevator to all three floors, an alarm system, a water purifying system, an irrigation system and a whole house generator.
