Upgraded Tudor Colonial on Nearly Five Lush Acres in Mendham Twp. The hallmarks of exquisite Tudor design, such as a brick-accented exterior, diamond-paned windows and stately rooflines, lend sophistication to an expansive residence filled with custom details and recent updates. Natural light fills the flowing 10-room floor plan of four bedrooms, four full baths and an attached three-car garage. Nestled into a gently rolling hillside, the 4.8-acre property is enhanced by park-like landscaping, stone-walled gardens, lush lawns, leafy woodlands and an expansive rear deck with an outdoor kitchen, ideal for warm weather living and entertaining. Located in the picturesque Brookside section of Mendham Township, this inviting home is across the street from the 46-acre Cold Brook Reserve and close to the Brookside beach, library, post office and community club. Offering three finished levels of living space, the neutrally decorated layout features lustrous hardwood floors, two fireplaces, a 2021 gourmet kitchen, remodeled baths throughout, skylights, generously-dimensioned rooms, a first floor guest suite, a stunning primary suite upstairs, a private skylit office and a beautifully finished basement with casual gathering areas. Approached by a long paved drive, the sheltered surroundings are edged by mature trees and plantings. This stately home is introduced by custom double doors featuring leaded glass inserts opening into the travertine-tiled floor foyer. Sightlines lead to the formal living room where a graceful marble-framed fireplace with a wood mantle is flanked by richly-toned built-in cabinetry. There is a step up from the living room into the adjacent formal dining room featuring parquet wood floors, a chandelier and traditional millwork. On the opposite side of the foyer, a convivial family room with a stylish wet bar is anchored by a stacked stone raised hearth fireplace, while a set of French doors to the deck underscores the home's strong indoor-outdoor connection. At the rear of the home, a designer 2021 kitchen presents custom cherry cabinets, granite countertops, travertine flooring and stainless steel appliances from Bertazzoni. French doors in the sun-splashed dining area open to the deck for al fresco meals. Nearby, a well-appointed laundry room and a full, updated bath are convenient amenities. The main floor also offers a custom-painted office lined in classic moldings and a guest suite consisting of a bedroom, library and full, private bath. There is a huge home office set above the first floor guest suite; it has multiple skylights set into a cathedral ceiling, a built-in window seat and neutral carpet. Also upstairs, a primary suite with a walk-in closet adjoins a spa-inspired bath featuring a clear glass door steam shower, soaking tub, double sink vanity and ornate tilework. Two secondary bedrooms, a hallway bathroom and sitting room complete the second level. Ref: 36672-3784307
