Old Westbury. In a neighborhood of fifteen beautifully-manicured one-acre properties, this charming 1955 home has been thoroughly re-imagined and reborn into a magnificent, multi-level, hi-tech, six-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath, multi-level brick masterpiece enjoying an acre of sweeping lawns, gorgeous mature shade trees, and breathtaking professional, country-club-like landscaping with patio and pool. With sweeping lawns enfolded by lush shrubbery, the home enjoys a sense of seclusion for its rear entertainment complex. Shaded on one side by towering trees, a sparkling Gunite pool is surrounded by an expansive bluestone patio, ideal for summer entertaining. A shady playground is just steps away, and a large lawn provides ample space for a possible tennis court or putting green if desired. The front yard welcomes guests with a brick and new concrete circular drive accented by lantern pillars. An attached two-car garage with carriage-house doors and a stone arched portico with double entry doors provide an inviting, “Hamptonesque” street presence. Long a popular area for Manhattan’s magnates and luminaries, Old Westbury is just over 30 minutes by railway or highway from Manhattan and major airports. Conveniently located near parks and museums, it is just a short drive from fine dining, premier shopping, golf, miles of public equestrian trails, polo club, yacht clubs and beaches.
Combining traditional elements with a touch of contemporary flair, the home’s interior offers a bright and cheerful ambiance with great flow for entertaining. The entrance foyer, with silvery shimmering ceiling and heated-floor powder room, features LED hi-hats, crown molding, and gleaming hardwood floors that extend throughout much of the home. The sunken, sunny living room boasts an open-beam, vaulted ceiling, fireplace, and a wall of windows. Entered through an archway and continuing a shimmering silver theme in its new grass-cloth wallcovering, the formal dining room features a Palladian window and stunning coffer-like ceiling. Another archway enters the immense eat-in kitchen with radiant-heated stone floors. Interrupted only by nine windows (with new automated Hunter Douglas blinds) and sliding-glass doors, custom granite-topped, hand-glazed cabinetry wraps around this 20-by-28-foot space. It includes a generous breakfast area, a passthrough to the dining room flanked by full-sized refrigerator and freezer, a breakfront, planning center, sink with dishwasher, pro-grade six-burner, griddle, and double-oven gas range with boiserie-enhanced vent hood, and a U-shaped center island with seating area, cabinetry, a bar sink, and one of two under cabinet beverage/wine coolers, a microwave, and a warming drawer. All appliances are stainless steel and high-end. Access to a mudroom and garage and to a rear porch complete this fantastic space. A few steps down from the foyer; is the ground floor great room, a perfect place to enjoy the flat-panel television, with built-in speakers and electronics closet, or relax and contemplate glowing embers in the newly restore sandstone fireplace. Easy-care stone floors and two sets of atrium doors provide easy-care passage from the pool and patio to a full bath and bedroom/dressing room. A few steps down from the great room leads to additional entertainment space with two rooms newly appointed with hi-hats and wood-like porcelain-tile floors.
A few steps up from the foyer, a balcony overlooking the living room accesses three updated bedrooms, the laundry with new appliances, and two designer baths (one with large shower, one with tub/shower, both with twin vanities). A few more steps lead ascend to the master suite level shared by a nursery/playroom, a bedroom (that could serve as a study or walk-in closet), and the palatial master suite. This heavenly retreat enjoys a high-volume ceiling; new hardwood floors; a Palladian window; new automated Hunter Douglas shades; a large, carpeted, custom-fitted cherry, walk-in closet; and a sunny luxury bath with jetted tub, shower with multiple shower heads, twin vanity, and television hidden within the vanity mirror. Offering so many amenities for comfortable living, this lovingly renovated and expanded home, so ideally located, is ready for you to just move in and enjoy luxury “Gold Coast” living.
