Behind a private gate at an elevated vantage point, sits a hilltop estate on 5 acres overlooking expansive, sweeping views of the city skyline of Hartford and surrounding ridges, striking eastern vistas with terrain that abuts protected woodlands. This one-owner home was designed by Robert Fish and exemplifies timeless architecture. Cedar shake and stone siding, copper accents and an integrated granite motor court sets the tone on arrival. Inside, five bedrooms, five full baths and three half baths unfold beneath vaulted and coffered ceilings. Mahogany floors and extensive custom millwork throughout. Three wood burning masonry fireplaces, each also plumbed for gas, carry warmth throughout. The main kitchen is made for hosting, with two Sub-Zero refrigerators, dishwasher, Wolf dual-fuel range, warming drawer, wine refrigerator, ice-maker and compactor. The kitchen is backed by a Scullery with an additional oven, dishwasher, microwave, compactor and sink. An additional refrigerated wine room can hold more than 300 bottles. The first-floor primary suite is a retreat of its own, with a fireside sitting area, two walk-in closets and two full baths. Movie night moves to the approximately 1,000 square foot theater, with electric recliners, bars, 132" projection screen and updated technology (2024). Surround sound serves the first floor and outdoors. The third floor serves as an additional playroom or exercise area.
