The avant-garde home features five bedrooms, six full baths and two partial baths and totals 5,775 square feet. Located just south of the Merritt Parkway, the property's stone exterior fits in the neighborhood, yet once inside, exudes the feeling of a contemporary New York City Chelsea apartment.
"If you're the type person who feels that your home is more than just a place to live but an extension of who and what you are and what you stand for, this home is a must see," said Coldwell Banker listing agent, Gail Zawacki.
Despite its buttoned-down exterior, the house boasts elements of modern and classical style inside.
When beating the summer heat, homeowners can enjoy the outdoors with the privacy of an in-ground pool, gym, pool house and entertaining patio area. The pool house, which is actually a small apartment, is perfectly situated to the pool and can be accessed from within the house.
"The house is extraordinarily livable with strategically located private family areas, yet falls into the category of a party house and is a wonderful place to entertain," said Zawacki.
As for the house's craftsmanship, Zawacki notes the attention to detail and high quality of materials. "There is a never ending pallet of custom design built in furniture and finishes, ranging from exotic wood flooring, built-in cabinet work from bars to the center island in the kitchen, all of the museum quality," she said.
