With breathtaking, long- distance views over Saucon Valley, this lovely custom home is the very definition of elegance. Prominently positioned on more than three acres, this manor home is enveloped by mature landscaping, manicured drive, perennial gardens and lovely outdoor living areas. The stately, stone exterior and custom design are the first impressions of the quality and beauty that are echoed in the home's interior. Designed by Chuck Harrison, the exterior is reminiscent of the European countryside. A premier, private setting, high atop Saddle Ridge, offers a fabulous marriage of design and position. A wealth of custom details and a sophisticated, yet functional, floor plan, attest to the flawless execution. Natural wood and stone finishes are used exclusively throughout with sumptuous floors of wood, granite, marble and tile. A grand foyer, with an elegant turned staircase, opens to dining and living rooms, with detailed custom woodwork and surprises at every turn. The first floor has vaulted and 10 foot ceilings, walls of Pella true-divided light windows and a handsome library featuring finely crafted millwork. However, it is the gourmet kitchen that will melt your heart. The custom cabinetry has corbels and detailed moldings and boasts painted designer sinks and the finest appliances. Steps away, a sun-filled, domed family room, with fireplace with lapis granite surround, has the perfect position, overlooking sunsets and private acreage beyond. A stunning master suite with 13' tray ceiling, fireplace and elegant bath is on the second floor. With nine foot second floor ceilings, and a future elevator closet, there are three additional bedrooms and a bonus space for future expansion and storage. These more than ample accommodations are unexpectedly enhanced by a lavish lower level with exercise room, full bath, kitchen/wet bar and an Aqua Trainer pool in a separate, environmentally-controlled room.
