The entrance to this distinguished property is marked by new brick piers capped with hand-carved limestone, supporting a pair of antique wrought iron entry gates, setting the tone for the residence beyond, an estate that blends traditional craftsmanship with refined proportions. As the land rises gently past the gates, the new home reveals itself: a masterful example of luxury Georgian architecture executed in Flemish bond brick with a slate roof.

The façade is anchored by a gracefully curved Doric entry portico crowned with a Palladian window, establishing symmetry and balance. Flanking wings extend outward with pilastered bays, reinforcing the home’s classical rhythm. Every element, from brickwork to the limestone details, contributes to the sense of permanence and architectural integrity.

On the garden elevation, the design continues its elegant dialogue with history. The central entry is framed by fluted Doric pilasters supporting a broken segmental pediment, its apex adorned with a carved pineapple finial, an enduring symbol of welcome and hospitality. Above, intricately carved scrolls transition gracefully into the enframement of French doors, which invite natural light and create a seamless connection between interior and landscape.

This balance of scale and ornamentation reflects a deep understanding of classical home design, ensuring the residence feels both stately and inviting.

The interiors unfold with equal attention to proportion and materiality. Visitors are greeted by a marble tiled Entry Hall that leads into the Living Room, where an elegant mantel is framed by arched cabinetry. Like the adjoining Dining Room, the space is washed with natural light from French doors that open to the garden terrace, an arrangement that fosters effortless indoor-outdoor living.

In the right wing, the Kitchen flows into the Family Room, a warm gathering space capped by a wood-beamed tray ceiling. To the left, the Master Bedroom suite offers a private retreat, its placement ensuring privacy while maintaining proximity to the home’s primary living areas.

The second floor provides four additional bedrooms, designed with flexibility in mind. One has been reimagined as an Exercise Room, offering a modern layer of convenience within the classical framework. Each space is appointed with thoughtful detailing and access to natural light, ensuring comfort for visiting family and guests.

Beneath the main living levels, the Basement accommodates practical needs with equal refinement. A three-car garage, lower-level entry, dedicated potting and gardening room, and ample storage ensure the residence functions seamlessly for contemporary living.

While rooted in the vocabulary of 18th-century Georgian design, this custom brick residence embraces modern family life with fluid circulation, abundant natural light, and spaces tailored to both private retreat and social gathering. The result is a home that feels timeless yet deeply responsive to its setting and its owners’ desire for convenient senior living.

Every aspect, from the Flemish bond brickwork and limestone accents to the measured rhythm of windows and doors, speaks to the enduring power of high-end residential architecture that honors tradition while serving the present.

This residence exemplifies the practice’s approach to crafting homes of enduring beauty, blending historical precedent with modern livability.
