Tucked at the end of a private cul-de-sac within an exclusive enclave of just ten estate homes, this magnificent all-brick manor set on 10 acres is a rare offering of grand scale, timeless architecture, and refined living. A sweeping circular driveway sets the stage for an impressive arrival, leading to a stately home designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living. A welcoming two-story foyer with a dramatic circular staircase creates an unforgettable first impression. Flanking the entrance, the formal living room and elegant dining rooms, both with fireplaces, offer beautifully proportioned spaces for hosting gatherings and special occasions. Toward the rear of the home, a richly paneled library with a fireplace creates a distinguished home office, offering access to a private outdoor terrace—perfect for quiet moments or working from home in style. Just beyond, the sunken family room features a wood-burning fireplace and provides a warm, inviting gathering space, flowing seamlessly into the gourmet kitchen with a large center island and abundant workspace. Just beyond, the sunken breakfast room is wrapped in walls of windows that frame picturesque views of the backyard and surrounding gardens, filling the space with natural light. For colder evenings, the gas fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, adding both charm and character to the room. Designed with entertaining in mind and adjacent to the kitchen, the home features a true butler's area with ample cabinetry, secondary appliances and entertaining essentials. Completing the first floor is an oversized laundry room, half bath and a mudroom, situated in close proximity to the entrance to the three-car garage. Designed with both luxury and functionality in mind, the home features 8 spacious bedrooms and 7.2 bathrooms, arranged across two staircases, including a private au-pair wing and a first-floor in-law suite, ideal for extended family or guests. Upstairs, the master bedroom suite is thoughtfully situated in its own wing of the home, offering a peaceful retreat from the main living areas. This spacious sanctuary features a comfortable sitting room, perfect for relaxing with a book or enjoying quiet moments at the end of the day. Dual walk-in closets provide generous storage, while the luxurious en-suite bath is appointed with a soaking tub, double vanities, and ample space for everyday comfort and convenience. Additionally, a finished third floor offers flexible space ideal for a children's playroom, home gym, or additional storage. The expansive basement offers the best of both worlds, with one half fully finished as a recreation room featuring a built-in bar, fireplace, a media area, pool table, game room, and full bath, while the remaining half remains unfinished, providing abundant storage or the opportunity for future customization. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with multiple flagstone patio areas designed for dining and relaxation, an in-ground pool with attached spa, and a pool house that enhances both convenience and resort-style living. These outdoor spaces create a seamless extension of the home, perfect for summer entertaining and private enjoyment. This exceptional residence offers a unique opportunity to own a home of remarkable craftsmanship, scale, and presence in an intimate and prestigious setting, all within the award-winning Council Rock School District!
