An estate where artists have retreated to create for nearly a century. It is easy to understand why a creative mind would be drawn to this remarkable ten-acre property; the undulating landscape invites you to amble, allowing the mind to roam. The gated drive greets you with the choice of two paths; one will bring you to the front of the home, where you will overlook the sun-soaked landscape, and the other will wind you down a shaded woodland path to a lovely detached three-car garage. Each of the home’s secondary buildings are sited upon country driveways — gently worn by the passing of many guests. Upon entering the home, you are greeted by a large formal living room that flows directly into the dining space. The first floor welcomes you to re-envision the floor plan to suit your taste and lifestyle. Multi-functional spaces include the sunken workspace, large den, and extended sunroom. The upper floors house three bedrooms and three bathrooms, each with its own unique view of the property. You look out over the pool and expansive lawn from the primary bedroom balcony. Within the secondary bedroom, you can take in the view of the property’s wooded border. Leaving the front of the home to be seen from the au pair suite accessed by a discreet staircase off the kitchen. Sited upon Bridgewater’s most sought-after road, there is a reason this property has only had three stewards; it is a place one wants to stay — a place that doesn’t lose its fantastical quality.
