Welcome to this 3,600-square-foot contemporary home which blends modern, country, and classic design. This special property is situated in a bucolic cul-de-sac neighborhood in historic Essex.

As you approach, you're struck by the unique architecture, the circular driveway, and bluestone patio. The property offers four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and a two-car garage, smartly connected by a newly added mud room and laundry room with stone flooring and custom built-ins.

The foyer leads into the spectacular two-story great room featuring stone flooring, a cathedral ceiling, and a wall of windows facing an expansive deck and lovely backyard. To one side of this room, there is the gourmet kitchen with a beamed ceiling, two islands, granite countertops, double ovens, a Thermador six-burner gas cooktop, natural wood and painted cabinets, a coffee bar, and a window seat. On the other side of the great room, there is the front-to-back living room with hardwood flooring, built-in bookshelves, a fireplace, and French doors to the deck.

The first floor also features a spacious family room with cherry floors, a fireplace, and a full bath—ideal for gatherings, an in-law suite, or alternative primary bedroom.

Upstairs, the completely new primary suite features cherry floors, built-in cabinetry, and a huge walk-in closet. The en-suite bath has double sinks with stone counters and a walk-in shower. The three other bedrooms, two of which have interior balconies overlooking the great room, share an updated full bath. Other amenities include central air, a carefree shed, and a basement.

This home is being offered for sale by William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty for $950,000. For more information or a showing, contact Sue Woods at 203-215-8676 or Laurie Mazzeo at 203-641-6837.
