Charming character blends with remodeled luxury in this mid-country colonial built in the 1840s and recently renovated by well-known architect Rob Sanders. โIn essence, 68 Doubling Road is a beautiful antique house with all the benefits of new construction,โ says real estate agent Marijane Bates Hvolbeck of Sothebyโs International Realty in Greenwich. Guests enter to a traditional center hall foyer. The paneled library is a stunning remodel with high ceilings raised into the former attic space and a wood- burning fireplace. โIt overlooks a lovely stone terrace with bubbling antique fountain,โ says Hvolbeck.
Details such as beamed ceilings in the living and dining room, wood-burning fireplaces, built-in bookshelves, a solarium and a stone terrace, give this home lots of character. A gourmet kitchen is the heart of this home with butlerโs pantry, custom cabinets, a large center island and top-of-the-line appliances. Upstairs, the master suite has a cozy sitting room, double closets and a spa-like master bathroom with radiant heated floor. A 1,700-square-foot guest house with sauna and plunge pool makes for a perfect sanctuary. โMany buyers today relish having the convenience of luxury-level amenities such as gyms and saunas in their homes, especially those buyers who may be moving out of NYC and are accustomed to these building amenities,โ added Hvolbeck.
