(Read more) with a stone gas fireplace and a live edge cherry mantle in the sunny family room. Beautiful cherry millwork and locally sourced cherry flooring on the first floor, oak on the second, flow graciously throughout the home. The gourmet kitchen with spectacular large gold granite central island is a gathering space complete with modern stainless appliances and cherry cabinets. The dramatic dining room overlooking the private grounds offers wonderful entertainment space and connects to one of the two outdoor terraces. An original brick fireplace with an artisanal cherry mantle graces the dining room. Underneath an adjacent long bank of windows, a graceful live edge cherry work shelf is an ideal spot for a morning cup of coffee and a good place for working on a laptop. In springtime there are breathtaking views of forsythia and hundreds of daffodils. The adjoining library/office features warm hand-crafted cherry wood paneling, a third gas fireplace with cherry mantle, and ample space to curl up with a good book. The second floor offers a beautiful primary suite complete with raised ceiling and rustic hand-hewn beams, private marble and granite bathroom, and views of the nearby woods and distant hills. Three additional bedrooms offer guest space. A large three-car garage and two wonderful patios complete this stunning estate. Strawberry Hill is a must see.
