Property Description
A rare opportunity to own one of the iconic homes in the "Historic Mill" town of Spotswood. Nestled on a hill overlooking DeVoe Lake, this fabulous colonial was the grand home to several notable figures in the community. A multiyear project, construction began in 1914 and was completed in 1918 and with impeccable craftsmanship, the home still embraces many distinctive features from its era, including the original hardwood floors, coffer ceilings, and stately moldings throughout. Over time, modern conveniences have been added while preserving much of the original character. Showcasing 3500 square feet on the two main levels alone, the first floor offers a grand foyer, the living room with fireplace and built-ins, a parlor with French doors leading to the pool area, the formal dining room, a sunroom/office, the kitchen, butler's pantry, the solarium, a powder room, while the partially enclosed porch wraps around 2 sides of the home's exterior. Follow one of the two staircases leading to the second floor landing, the main staircase will direct you toward the first series of bedrooms, including the master suite with fireplace, the homes original adjacent nursery has been converted into a massive walk in closet, two more large bedrooms and full bath. The second staircase leads you to two additional bedrooms and another full bath. Not included in the original square footage is the finished walk up attic. Here you will find another bedroom, a large open multipurpose area, and storage rooms including a cedar lined closet. The basement has several more rooms, a full bath and the potential to add even more living space. In all, there are six bedrooms and 4.5 baths and four levels to this magnificent estate. From the secret closet, to the original electric panel on display, you will find items throughout that preserve the history and character. The majestic columns, large Portico, a two car detached garage with storage, a parking area and an in-ground pool complete the exterior of this truly "one of a kind" estate home.
