OLD WESTBURY. Offering the quintessence of luxury “Gold Coast” living, this magnificent 2006 Dutch Colonial will enfold you with the comfort and style of a Hampton retreat but in a location much more convenient to city life. Boasting five spacious bedrooms including a first-floor master suite, five designer baths, two powder rooms, a breathtaking outdoor entertainment complex, finished basement with gym and media room, and a bright and airy floor plan with stupendous country kitchen, it is ideal for year-round entertaining and a perfect getaway where you can relax and regenerate. Ensconced on two-and-a-quarter secluded and exquisitely landscaped acres, this amazing home offers expansive lawns accented by an ever-changing panoply of color in flowering shrubs and specimen trees, all enjoyed from an expansive stone patio with outdoor kitchen, a glistening heated inground Gunite pool with brick surround, and pergola-topped pavilion. A wide, winding driveway with two courtyards plus an attached three-car garage offer ample off-street parking. For well over a century, Old Westbury has been a favorite location for many of Manhattan’s elite to make their home. Only a half-hour commute to the city, its gentle rolling hills are dotted with grand estates, three major universities, a polo club, miles of equestrian trails, golfing, and are just a short drive to boating, museums, and premier dining and shopping.
Entered through an oversized entry door with soaring fanlight, the grand foyer’s proportions are indicative of the bright and spacious interior featuring high ceilings, elegant moldings, artfully crafted built-ins, and custom wood floors. A plethora of windows flood the home with sunshine and serene vistas. For ease in entertaining, the principal rooms flow together beautifully and coordinate in color and appointments, yet their individual ambiance is unique creating a sense of discovery and change in mood. The banquet-sized formal dining room presents an elegant and grand setting for gracious dining with its coffered ceiling, walnut floors, and fielded-panel wainscoting, while the warm and inviting two-story living room introduces a touch of casual charm with its soaring stone fireplace, wide-plank pine floors, and French doors opening, beneath quarter-circle windows, to the rear patio. Pocket doors open to a cozy clubroom-like sanctuary, with elegant cabinetry housing a bar and refrigerator, a perfect spot for a game of bridge or backgammon. A French door leads into a huge family room reminiscent of an Adirondack retreat with knotty pine walls, heated stone floors, soaring open-beam teacup ceiling, stone fireplace, and circular wall of windows with French doors to the rear property. The huge yet cozy country kitchen is a chef’s delight with pine floors, extensive custom shaker cabinetry with marble countertops and blue subway tile backsplash, a huge center island with walnut countertop, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including two Sub-Zero refrigerators, two dishwashers, built-in ovens with microwave/convection, and a Wolf gas stove with two ovens and a pot filler. A delightful circular breakfast alcove with teacup ceiling offers panoramic views of the property. A walk-in pantry, a butler’s pantry leading to the dining room, and access to the living room, foyer, and service hallway complete this tremendous hub of the home. The hallway leads to backstairs, powder room, the garage, a staff/guestroom, and full bath.
Accessed off the rear foyer, the elegant and palatial master suite overlooks a formal garden through a towering arched window in its luxurious bedroom serviced by one large custom walk-in closets, and a delightful marble master bath with claw-and-ball tub, separate shower, and twin vanity. Three additional bath-en-suite bedrooms plus a large bonus room are located on the second floor accessed from a barrel-ceiling hallway that overlooks the foyer and living room. The full finished basement provides much additional space for storage and entertaining and features a large media/playroom and a spacious gym. Come experience this magnificent residence designed to suit your every mood and serve your entertaining needs in every season – a gem that needs nothing more than you.
