Welcome to Cape Cottage, where the simple pleasures of home are celebrated and nature’s beauty is cultivated. The infinitely charming dormered house was redesigned by architect Max Hayden and the nearly acre-and-a-half gated grounds were transformed by the current owner, a passionate gardener with a creative spirit, whose vision has matured into a symphony of lavish color that plays through the seasons. In spring, countless tulip petals unfurl. By summer, clematis and roses have climbed up and over arched arbors. Come fall, Japanese maple and chrysanthemums show off their bold hues. The cottage-style garden was featured on the cover of Garden Gate Magazine. Nearly every room in the house opens to the outdoors, so that the beauty can be enjoyed by all each day. A friendly Dutch door reveals the two-story foyer, the first of many interior surprises. In the kitchen, a porthole punctuates the peaked ceiling over the dining area and top-of-the-line appliances meet the needs of even the most serious cooks. Sub-Zero’s most coveted model takes center stage, joined by a Viking cooktop, wine fridge and double ovens. Fireplaces add traditional appeal to the living room, the library and the large coffered family room, where storage is cleverly hidden behind panelled walls. For much of the year, however, the newly added screened porch is the most popular place to gather with ample space for both relaxing and dining. In the private wing, two bedrooms share a hall bath and the main suite is a dream with four closets and a cathedral bathroom. Separate finished basement areas offer flexible spaces for a gym or game room and two guest suites, complete with timelessly styled baths, are accessible via their own staircases for ultimate privacy. Every inch of this home is styled to perfection. Even the brick-floored mudroom and the 3-bay garage will leave you utterly charmed! Some of the less glamorous, but highly valuable, updates include a generator, upgraded systems, copper gutters and a 15-zone irrigation system. Everything is checked off the list!
