About This Property
A true estate setting this close to town, nestled into the quietest
corner of the Western Section, is simply unparalleled.
Princeton-educated architect Rolf Bauhan, largely responsible for
the refined aesthetic for which the area is known, designed this
brick manor on rolling land named Lone Tree Farm. The bucolic
atmosphere remains with sweeping front lawns, an English garden and
a newly rebuilt pool spread out on 3.43 acres. A covered terrace
detailed with scrolling wrought iron surveys the grounds amid the
soothing trickle of working fountains. While this breathtaking home
is timeless in style and retains a trove of authentic original
features, systems are state-of-the-art, metal roofs are brand new
and renovations include a custom kitchen, a perfectly polished
primary bath and high-end lighting chosen by a creative designer
with a keen eye for detail. Carved wood mantels, patinated brass
hardware and elaborate moldings are mostly original and it's nearly
impossible to distinguish which embellishments were just added.
Both the family and dining rooms are paneled for an enveloping
atmosphere during evening gatherings, while other spaces glow in
soft shades of white. Even utilitarian areas have special touches,
like whimsical tiles dotting the highly functional mudroom, a
homework/craft area and the newly equipped laundry room. Only the
best was considered for the kitchen, where handmade inset cabinetry
and seamless slabs of marble stand the test of time and an Aga
induction range and full-sized refrigeration wow even the most
ambitious cooks. Atop the gracious main staircase are three large
suites that proudly retain antique bath fixtures, tiling and marble
baseboards meticulously restored along with inset cabinets for
hidden storage. The primary suite includes a dreamy dressing room
between the custom closet and Calcutta marble bath with floating
vanity and Waterworks fixtures. Comfortable guest accommodations
are down the hall accessible by a separate staircase. A spot for
memorable sleepovers or a sanctum for the resident genius awaits
discovery in the attic. Mere words can not capture all the magic to
be found at Lone Tree Manor. Experiencing it in-person is a must!
