Every room of this sophisticated yet comfortable home is anchored by master craftsman details. Fashioned after a Scottish castle from the 19th century the current owner recognized the one of a kind quality this home held and invested over $1.6 million in updating the home for today's buyer. The home was restored from the ground up as were the gardens and terraces. Find yourself surrounded by original beamed ceilings & hand scraped flooring, 7 working FP each with a unique surround, and leaded glass windows with custom storms. A large butler's pantry, separate breakfast room and bright white kitchen are just off the family room. A roof top terrace is part of the 5 room master suite and each family bedroom is en-suite. A great floor plan allows for family time or formal entertaining. 2nd floor features a screened porch and laundry. "Argyllshire" - home to one fortunate buyer who desires move-in condition, old-world details & private East location. NO SIGN.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
