Overview
Description
Grand Village Masterpiece – Sitting on almost half an acre lot, this spectacular Greg Cole build/Studio Pyramid design home on Chester’s front harbour features a solid wharf and incredibly central village location. With over four thousand square feet of all seasons living space including the two-bay garage, meticulous and complete restorations of this 75-year-old home happened in 2005 and 2017. Starting in the kitchen, features are evident, including black honed quartz countertops, Gaggeneau/Thermador appliances, and a white polished quartz island. The living room open vaulted ceiling through hand hewn exposed beams is bookended by a Jotal stove and a wood burning fireplace. The main flooring is mostly hardy solid oak with a wax oil finish, as well as slate in the powder and dining rooms. Making our way into the sunroom, the coffered design exposes the high ceilings and a second Jotal wood stove creates a cozy environment. Getting down to work, the prime front office/den location with built in bookshelves offers wharf views and sailboats dancing in the front harbour. A side entrance opens into a foyer with coat vestibule and powder room. A second off driveway entrance has a foyer and laundry room with drying racks. The perfectly positioned rear main floor storage area has custom cabinetry and claw foot dog washing tub. A two-bay garage with EV charger, storage compartments/hanging systems, a double wide fronted glass door and polished cement flooring, is conveniently attached. Upstairs, there is room for everyone with three bedrooms, each with ensuites and spacious closet space, and a studio/gym “flex space”. The Herman Miller extra-large saucer lighting in the primary bedroom is a glimpse into the top brand choices throughout the home. His and hers walk in closets plus an additional wall of closets offer copious amounts of wardrobe space. There are several mock floor plan configurations available demonstrating allowance for two additional bedrooms...
