Towering trees canopy the private drive to this gracious, comfortable, colonial-cape tucked into the heralded splendor of bernardsville mountain. Enter its sheltering gate and savor the exceptional privacy, refined classic design and resort amenities of this pastoral 5. 4 acre retreat. Elegant features abound throughout this 2 level home including glowing oak floors, bay windows, wide moldings, window-walls with french doors, fully-appointed bar room with built-in cabinetry, wood-burning fireplaces and an in-law or guest suite with sitting room, seamlessly added in 1997. And then . . . There is the coup-de-grace a magnificent recently installed country kitchen which might easily have stepped from the pages of a designer magazine. Antique-glazed cabinets with granite counters envelop premier appliances including a dacor 6-burner, dual-energy range/oven, fisher and paykel dishdrawers and individual sub-zero refrigerator and freezer. A vast island provides seating for 6 as well as the enjoyment of a built-in, automatic-lift tv. Nearby, an octagonal, turret-style dining area offers delightful views to fieldstone-walled, tiered patios with built-in barbecue. Not to be overlooked are the splendid bedroom suites including a master suite which enjoys its own level and private deck as well as his and her separate dressing areas and baths. The second level contains three en suite bedrooms all with picture window views to the spectacular lower terrace with in-ground, gunite pool and bluestone surround. The adjoining cabana echoes the architecture of the main residence and includes a lounge, kitchen and full bath. Bernardsville offers a unique blend of country seclusion, small town geniality and easy access to new york city. Known throughout the metropolitan area for its equestrian farms, estates, and historical mansions, bernardsville is also prized for its excellent school system, its convenient shopping and recreational facilities and its truly glorious scenery.
