Property Description
Beyond the bright, gallery-like entry, the eye is immediately drawn through the home toward its dramatic centerpiece: a spectacular glass conservatory rising at the rear of the residence like a private botanical pavilion. Flooded with natural light and framed by treetop views, the space blurs the line between indoors and out, anchored by a soaring antique chandelier and an oversized fountain repurposed as a sculptural planter. More than simply a sunroom, it is the architectural heart of the home — and the room you will inevitably find yourself gathering in.
Designed for both large-scale entertaining and intimate everyday living, the surrounding spaces balance modern luxury with warmth and texture. The living and dining rooms flow seamlessly into the conservatory, while a custom built-in wine and spirits cabinet reinforces the home's effortless entertaining aesthetic.
At the center of the home, the warm contemporary kitchen combines clean lines, professional-grade appliances, skylit natural light, and understated functionality. Just beyond, a sunlit breakfast room or reading lounge with shelving opens onto a covered veranda overlooking the surrounding landscape and mature trees — an inviting setting for morning coffee, conversation, or quiet work-from-home moments.
A dramatic vaulted family room introduces a moodier counterpoint to the home's airy entertaining spaces, pairing rich tones, oversized windows, a statement mantel, and integrated office alcove to create a comfortable lounge-like environment for relaxing or working from home. A nearby main-level laundry room adds everyday practicality.
Designed with comfort and privacy in mind, all five bedrooms feature ensuite baths. The main-level primary suite offers generous proportions and a calm, boutique hotel-inspired atmosphere. The ensuite bath features a soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, single vanity, and clean contemporary finishes, while just beyond, the suite extends outdoors to a secluded walled courtyard with hot tub, private outdoor shower, and lounge area nestled beneath the trees.
The main family wing includes additional ensuite bedrooms with spacious closets and flexible accommodations for family or guests. Separate from this wing, two distinct upper-level suites are accessed by independent staircases, creating exceptional privacy and flexibility. One functions as a true second primary suite, complete with a lounge-style sitting area, spa-like bath, and private roof deck tucked among the treetops. The second upper-level suite offers ideal accommodations for guests, an au pair, multigenerational living, or the ultimate tucked-away hangout space.
The partially finished lower level provides flexible recreation, fitness, or lounge space, while a substantial unfinished area offers additional laundry area, extensive storage and utility space. Additional outdoor seating areas tucked throughout the property further enhance the home's immersive connection to the surrounding landscape.
Ideally located just steps from Valley Green, St. Martins train station, and the boutiques and restaurants along Germantown Avenue, this architecturally curated residence is truly a home that must be experienced in person to fully appreciate the atmosphere, scale, and remarkable sense of escape it offers within one
