magnificent custom colonial
Welcome to 59 Leigh Gate Road. This magnificent custom colonial is pure perfection in every way. From its location at the end of a sought after cul-de-sac, to its beautifully and professionally landscaped yard, this 5400 square foot home has a simple and refined elegance throughout, with no attention to detail spared. House Beautiful is defined as you step inside the gracious entry foyer. A formal living room embraces elegance with a gas fireplace, floor to ceiling windows and french doors with transom. Across the foyer is a formal dining room with the same beautiful windows, wainscoting and french doors. The custom kitchen is an entertainer's dream with top of the line appliances including double ovens, warming drawer, gas cooktop, built-in refrigerator, 2 dishwashers, 2 sinks, instant hot water in the custom coffee & breakfast bar, plus a walk-in pantry. There is plenty of room for a big family table in front of a slider overlooking the restful patio and private backyard, and plenty of seating at the marble topped island. The family room is filled with natural light from the gazebo style vaulted ceiling and includes a gas fireplace with marble surround and a built-in bar with wine cooler, beverage cooler and sink. The first floor office has a pocket french door, built in bookshelves and a lovely view through the bay window. A gorgeous full bath and mudroom with built-ins complete the first floor. Custom lighting from Visual Comfort and hardwood floors with Rubio Monocoat finish are throughout. The hardwood floors continue onto the two staircases leading to the elegant primary suite with gas fireplace, tray ceiling, and a spa-like bath that includes a wet room with a claw foot tub and a zero-threshold shower adorned with a custom marble mural and tile. A large walk-in closet and dressing room by California Closets enhance the primary suite. Four more beautifully decorated bedrooms have large closets and new carpeting. One of the bedrooms is a front to back bonus room that could be used in a multitude of ways. Two updated tiled baths service these bedrooms. A large laundry room with California Closet built-ins completes the second story. The lower level has a craft room with a built-in gift wrapping center, a half bath, a large recreation room with TV and custom built-ins, a kitchenette, a fully equipped home gym, plenty of storage space and a walk-up to the oversized 3-car garage. This home has all new mechanicals, a hook up for a generator, central vacuum, security system, ring camera system, built-in sound system, multi-zone sprinkler system, a new shed with power, a private back yard and patio with multiple seating areas, a fire pit and an ipe and cedar wood outdoor shower. This home is a true retreat, but is central to South Glastonbury, Glastonbury and everything the area has to offer!
