top 10 Features of the home:

The owners perspective

1.   Open flow made for entertaining or those who enjoy space.  Vaulted family room, 10 foot ceilings and a grand staircase leading from the foyer/dance floor with first-floor sound system. 

 

2.   The gourmet kitchen is the heart of this home, with plenty of room to socialize while cooking and eating        together.  Highlights include Viking appliances (refrigerator, stove/oven, wall oven, microwave), a newer    professional grade disposal and 2 new Thermador dishwashers.

 

3.   Very quiet, private location with large, flat, front and back yards with mature trees, significantly set back from the main road on a private cul-du-sac. Invisible dog fence already installed.  Just a short walk out the backyard tree line to access the Peachtree Neighborhood, Cedar Hill Elementary School (2 minutes), and Ridge High School (5 minutes), offering the optimal balance of privacy and proximity.

 

4. The beautifully designed, gunite pool, with natural rock features, has an attached hot tub with a waterfall.  During the pandemic it allowed us to bring the vacation resort feeling right to our own backyard.  It offers the perfect private “get away” within your own property, and another great area for entertaining. 

 

5. The location is also great for walking to the Basking Ridge town center (20 minutes, with sidewalks), the     Lyons Shopping Plaza (13 minutes, with sidewalks), and the Lyons Train Station (10 minutes, with sidewalks).  Could also walk to William Annin Middle School (25 minutes walk). 

 

6. The unfinished basement is great flexible space (as is) or ready to be finished as per your own vision.  The plumbing for a bathroom has already been roughed in.

 

7. The master bedroom includes its own sitting room area with a wet bar and fireplace.  The perfect spot to      retreat into within the house, with stunning views of the sunset.

 

8. Multiple sitting areas on the first floor of the house:  a sunken family room with a vaulted ceiling and fireplace, an office/media room, and a living room which has an attached conservatory with a slate floor.

 

9. Also has a finished attic that could be a home office or a media room (or even a bedroom).

 

10.   All bedrooms are a good size, and each one has in-room access to a bathroom.
