Résidence Unifamiliale à Bristol

This elegant two-story brick residence offers approximately 6,800 square feet of refined living space and was comprehensively renovated in 2021. Set on 37.5 acres, the property is approached by a winding, tree-lined drive extending from a private gated entrance to the home. Three ponds enhance the picturesque setting and provide tranquil views throughout the grounds. Upon entry, a grand two-story foyer with a sweeping circular staircase creates a striking first impression. Oak flooring extends throughout both the first and second levels. Flanking the foyer, the formal living room features paneled walls, crown molding, and a marble-hearth, two-sided fireplace. Opposite, the dining room also showcases a marble fireplace and connects to the kitchen via a butler’s pantry. The kitchen is both functional and well-appointed, featuring contemporary white and blue cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and quartz countertops with a waterfall-edge island and matching backsplash. An octagonal breakfast room with arched windows surrounds the space with natural light. Adjacent to the kitchen, a spacious mudroom with built-in cabinetry leads to the laundry room and attached three-car garage. Through an arched opening, the family room offers expansive windows and a sliding glass door leading to a concrete aggregate patio overlooking the grounds. A private home office with a bay window is located just beyond. A notable feature on the main level is the children’s playroom, situated next to a first-floor bedroom with an en-suite bath. This flexible space may serve as a primary suite, guest accommodations, or an in-law arrangement. The second level includes three additional bedrooms. The primary suite features a fireplace and private access to a catwalk leading to a balcony with views of the ponds. The catwalk continues to a secondary bedroom, ideal for use as a nursery. The primary bath is appointed with terrazzo tile flooring, a walk-in shower with a frameless glass enclosure, a walnut vanity with a granite countertop and dual vessel sinks, and a freestanding tub positioned beneath a window. The remaining bedrooms share a generously sized hall bath, complete with dual vanities, a walk-in shower with a frameless glass enclosure, and a freestanding tub. The lower level is thoughtfully divided into two distinct areas. One side is designed for recreation and entertaining, offering a large space suitable for a billiards room or home theater, along with French doors leading to a wine cellar with built-in storage. The opposite side features a private apartment with its own entrance, including a living room, kitchen, bedroom, office, bathroom, and laundry area. This space is well-suited for an in-law arrangement, guests, nanny suite, or potential rental use, with direct access to a covered carport beneath the main-level deck. There is a pole barn on the property, ideal for a workshop, vehicle storage, or potential equestrian use. An artist had a vision to make this home a masterpiece and loved the peaceful surroundings of this landscape. The property’s expansive acreage and natural setting offer a rare opportunity for privacy, recreation, and an estate tailored to a variety of lifestyles.
