Overview

Perched high above the landscape of South Cheshire, this extraordinary custom-built Colonial is a residence of uncommon beauty, privacy, and scale. Set against the natural backdrop of Bethany Mountain and surrounded by meticulously maintained, park-like grounds, this exceptional 4/5-bedroom home captures magnificent views, abundant sunshine, and a remarkable sense of tranquility. From the moment you arrive, there is an unmistakable feeling that this is something special. Thoughtfully designed and impeccably cared for, the home combines the timeless elegance of classic Colonial architecture with the openness and amenities expected of today's finest residences. Inside, soaring ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, and an inviting open floor plan create an effortless connection between the home's gracious living spaces. At its center is a beautifully appointed gourmet kitchen, equally impressive as a gathering place for family and friends or as the culinary heart of sophisticated entertaining. The main level continues with an elegant formal living room, formal dining room, private library, laundry room, and oversized three-car garage, providing an exceptional balance of formal spaces, everyday comfort, and practical convenience. The finished lower level adds another dimension entirely. Tastefully appointed and exceptionally versatile, it offers an ideal setting for an in-law or guest suite, private retreat, recreation space, or extended family living. And then comes the feature that truly sets this property apart: an indoor, heated 75-foot lap pool. This extraordinary private amenity transforms the residence into a year-round retreat-perfect for exercise, relaxation, entertaining, or simply enjoying the luxury of having a resort-quality pool in the comfort of your own home. Outside, the experience is equally remarkable. The property is framed by lush, park-like grounds and natural surroundings, while its elevated position provides both exceptional vistas and a level of privacy increasingly difficult to find. Backing to Bethany Mountain, the setting feels wonderfully removed from the ordinary, yet remains a sophisticated and comfortable place to call home. This is more than a beautiful house. It is a private sanctuary, an entertainer's dream, and a truly distinctive lifestyle property-a rare opportunity to enjoy exceptional architecture, extraordinary amenities, breathtaking surroundings, and enduring privacy
