If you have been waiting for that special home that makes you and everyone who walks through the door say “WOW,” your search is over! Rarely does a home this special reach the market. This turn-of-the-century stone stable was remodeled to create a dramatic and visually stunning home with over 6000 square feet of living space on over a 1/2 acre. Every detail, fixture and amenity demonstrates that no expense was spared to modernize this exquisite property. This home was first modified in 2003 and features an elegant entrance with marble floors and a grand staircase. The living room has 28-foot ceilings, hay hoist beams, exposed stone walls and an impressive stone fireplace. The sun-filled formal dining room is both cozy and impressive with another fireplace and built-ins. The top-of-the-line, gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances, an imported AGA stove, granite counter tops and a large island waiting for the family chef. Surround-sound, slate floors and exposed stone walls make the family room perfect for both cozy evenings or entertaining with family or friends. The first floor is further enhanced with another bedroom/gym/office and full bath or could also be an in-law suite. The current owners improved the space by adding a large mudroom, powder room and first floor laundry area. Upstairs features an exquisite master bedroom with soaring ceilings, sitting area, walk-in closet and luxurious spa-like master bath complete with jacuzzi and walk-in shower. A piano, library loft and an additional bedroom and bath complete with a juliet balcony overlook the downstairs living space. A separate wing offers two large bedrooms, a contemporary bathroom and spacious playroom/ media room. The outdoor space features a private brick-walled courtyard, tiered gardens, yard, storage shed and long private driveway. All of this in award-winning Abington School district, in walking distance to the elementary school, and close to public transportation, Whole Foods, hospitals and more.
