A labor of love complete renovation top to bottom, inside and outside The beautifully restored foyer introduces you to the quality workmanship and attention to detail that went into restoring and updating this home. You will find gorgeous woodwork throughout: All new doors including door frames, beautfiful cabinetry and gleaming wood floors; see especially the oak and maple parquet dining room floor. Don't miss the mahogany window in the elegant living room with 9 1/2 foot high beamed ceiling. Also, throughout the house the lighting (by Anne Kustner Lighting Design) received special attention with spot lights, top-of-the-line fixtures, LED under-mount lights, dimmers etc. The new kitchen has ample cabinets and besides beautiful granite counter tops also a work space with room for two chairs, two computers and a printer. There is a large eating area with view of the garden. Kitchen and dining room are connected through a splendid butler's pantry with warming drawer, microwave oven, another dishwasher and also a second refrigerator (Sub Zero). Its counter tops are marble. The stemware-protective sink is made of a mineral composite that include milled quartz and a synthetic binder. Bring up the wine from a genuine, barrel ceiling, fully insulated wine cellar. Equally splendid are the home's bathrooms. There are three on the second floor and a fourth in the basement. They each have an unique character. The master bath has marble wall tiles, a heated slate floor and a special granite counter top. The shower has a pebble floor, a glass tile ceiling and frosted and clear glass and granite tile walls. It is plumbed and glassed in for a steam shower. The designer bath tub (Victoria Albert) and Kohler Hatbox toilet add to the elegance. And last not least: Especially noteworthy is the home's high energy efficiency: The house has been fully insulated (both the original and new construction parts). Efficient new zoned heating and cooling and dual instant water heaters. 2009 Taxes: $10,978 Did you know that Kenilworth is the only North Shore community with an one-school district?
