Property Description
Welcome to 994 Bluff... a truly breathtaking, work of art. A complete gut renovation & new construction, this one-of-a-kind home has been painstakingly & artfully reimagined w/a fresh, modern organic sensibility that exudes casual luxury. The unparalleled attention to detail & thoughtful design is evident as the spaces flow seamlessly, creating a soft beautiful harmony throughout. The bright, open floorplan features 7" wide-plank European wood flooring w/a stunning herringbone foyer, & floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the home w/a magical natural light. Step inside & you're drawn to the stunning European-made custom curved steel & glass French doors that open to a pastoral green expanse. The Architectural Digest-worthy Chef's kitchen is jaw-droppingly beautiful w/top-of-the-line Wolf & Subzero appliances, custom white oak cabinetry, gorgeous Aarabescato Cervaoile Marble counters & full-height backsplash w/panoramic views of the backyard. The kitchen also features a stunning 12' marble-topped island perfect for culinary enthusiasts & entertainers alike. Off of the kitchen is a beautifully crafted Butler's Pantry w/checkered marble flooring & custom glass-paneled built-in w/marble countertop & backsplash complete w/sink, dishwasher & refrigerator drawers. The adjacent mudroom features decorative white oak cubbies, a large closet for additional storage & direct access to the heated 3-car garage wired for EV hook-up. A convenient 2nd half bath is located off the mudroom. The kitchen opens to the spacious family room w/beamed ceiling & modern marble wood-burning fireplace flanked by matching glass & steel doors. From there is an elegant office w/custom built-ins & a beautiful view of the rolling green, front yard. The 1st floor also features a Dining Room & wood-beamed Living Room w/large limestone fireplace surrounded by a wall of custom built-ins masterfully crafted to reflect the soft curved lines throughout the home. Adjacent to the LR is a light-filled, circular Sunroom enclosed by 3 walls of windows w/sweeping views of the backyard & bluestone patio. The architecturally stunning cupola & skylight accented w/white oak ceiling detail make this special space perfect for your morning coffee or post-dinner retreat w/friends. The 1st floor is completed by the spectacular two-story vaulted Library w/a floor-to-ceiling wall of custom bookshelves that frame a breathtaking 12' arched divided light window. The Library also features a large fireplace w/leathered black Ocean stone surround & a beautiful paneled accent wall. Of course, the Library would not be complete w/o a genuine Putnam rolling library ladder! The 2nd level features a stunning & sunlit, vaulted primary suite featuring his/her walk-in closets, a beautiful Volakas marble fireplace, window seats that architecturally mirror the vaulted ceiling & large French doors to a private balcony w/tree top views. The luxurious, spa-like bath w/radiant-heated floors features a spacious marble-clad steam shower, 10' custom dual-vanity w/fluted drawer fronts & marble apron-front sinks, as well as a gorgeous soaking tub overlooking the backyard. The 2nd floor also includes 4 additional bright & spacious BR's all w/their own bath & custom closets, as well as a beautiful, sun-filled laundry room. The 3rd level feels like a luxurious, sun-filled tree house w/skylights, large window seats & three adorable built-in bunks each w/its own reading light. Young or old, this space is sure to be a treasured spot in the home. The lower level includes a large recreation area, built-in wet bar w/custom cabinetry & a wall of glass panels that look into a fabulous workout space filled w/natural light. Also featured is another full bath, 6th BR, secondary mudroom & luxurious dog bath worthy of the highest pedigree pup... although lovable mutts are just as welcome!
