Overview

Description

You have to see this home to believe it! Starting from approximately 420 feet of paved driveway leading to paradise. Almost 2 Acres of lush, manicured gardens surrounded by abundant greenery, creates this tranquil setting perfect for privacy or gala entertaining; yet conveniently located near shopping, train, beach, ferry and more. The House...where do I begin? It's the William Van Buren Estate circa 1867 - plaque at the front door. A designer Kitchen to please the most discerning chef with a Molteni commercial grade stove, Watermark fixtures, marble counters, and a butler's pantry highlight the attention to detail, making it a dream for culinary enthusiasts. The flexibility of having 3 options for a primary bedroom adds to the home's appeal. So again I say, you must see it to believe it!
