On a quiet Wilton cul-de-sac, at 56 Edgewater Dr., reminiscent of the mansions of Newport & Nantucket, rests an elegant country manor on four manicured acres.
A sweeping drive past specimen trees and bordering woodlands provides utmost privacy as well as seasonal water views. Native stonework and perennial gardens beautifully stage a custom designed swimming pool and spa with cascading waterfall. A har-tru tennis court in the distance provides the ultimate oasis for relaxation and entertaining.
A wraparound mahogany deck with bead board ceiling beckons you inside. The grandeur continues in the foyer, a grandly scale room drenched in natural light. The open floor plan and elegant archways flow seamlessly into the formal dining room with coffered ceilings and the living room with fireplace and built-in bookcases. A granite concealed wet bar adds to the drama. The handsome library with marble fireplace provides quiet relaxation as well as stunning vistas of the reservoir.
A professionally designed grand gourmet kitchen with beaded mahogany cabinetry and granite countertops allow more than one cook to prepare and serve dinner parties. The whole family will linger in the breakfast room, inspired by surrounding views of the pool and gardens, and in the adjoining family room by the hearth of the commanding Connecticut Fieldstone fireplace.
The master wing features a custom entertainment center, private balcony, dressing rooms and a Durango limestone master bath, whirlpool tub and spa shower designed to pamper. Every indulgence for comfort and luxury has been considered in this five bedroom, six bath residence.
This home is on the market for $2,879,000.
