Phenomenal property on Avon mountain has everything you need, want, and then some! This is the perfect home for work and play throughout the seasons! The stunning, unique architectural design, combines both contemporary and traditional elements that work in harmony with nature. Thoughtfully situated on four acres for maximum exposure to the picturesque western views of the hills and valleys of Connecticut, expansive glass throughout lets the outdoors in. Pull into the courtyard drive and you'll be wowed by the massive stone arch entry. Once inside, the Good Morning staircase is a showstopper! The centerpiece of the home is the great room with its 18 foot high stone fireplace, reminiscent of a Vermont ski lodge. Every room is a delight, from the spacious cherry and granite kitchen, complete with high-end appliances and an elegant, butlers pantry, to the library, completely outfitted in rich, wood paneling and built-ins. The second level offers two wings; one leads to the principal bedroom suite, with sitting area, customized walk-in closet, spa bath and private deck, a second guest suite, large laundry room and a generously sized media room (could easily be a fifth bedroom); and the other, with two additional bedrooms and full bath. Head up to the top level, where you will find "The Sanctuary", a workspace surrounded by windows, with a private deck to take in the amazing views! Take the stairs, or the elevator, all the way down to the lower level where you will find a huge recreation room with another impressive stone fireplace, a well-appointed, humidity controlled wine tasting room, a kitchenette and doors to the lower patio. Step through the French doors into the Natatorium which houses the nearly 60 foot long heated, fully automated pool and spa. The exquisite millwork, loads of natural light and plenty of lounging space make this the ideal year-round playground for you and your guests!
