This prestigious Lower Hillsborough estate is set behind gilded ebony gates. The grand colonial is perfectly positioned on 2/3 acre with vast level land at the front and rear plus pool and spa added during the whole-home renovation. Spanning more than 7,000 sqft, entirely transformed with modern accoutrements in the past 5 years, the homes mid-century origins now exude 21st century luxury. Classic moldings, wainscot paneling, and finely crafted millwork present understated elegance. An executive office awaits todays work-from-home lifestyle, and a fitness center adjoins the primary suite, which has been expanded to include a couture-worthy closet room. There are 6 bedrooms, providing ample options for guests, additional office space, and family members. Three of the bedrooms open to a covered veranda, which spans the rear of the home and overlooks the magical grounds. This is an undeniably perfect Hillsborough home, just a short stroll to Burlingame Avenue and excellent local schools.
