06/01/2017 12:01 AMThis distinctive, three-bedroom home in Essex was shaped by three architects: landscape architect Elizabeth Moore, noted modernist architect James Wilder Green, and its present owner, who is also an architect.
Green, who had a distinguished career with the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), crafted both sophistication and warmth into the home’s interior, while Moore created a park-like atmosphere in the gardens and grounds, which encompass 1.6 acres. The current owner renovated the kitchen, master bedroom wing, and the two-story entry gallery.
Inside, this Cape Cod-style home offers a bright, modern feel. Throughout, natural light spills onto the home’s shining hardwood floors via French doors and expansive windows. The home consists of open, modern living areas with built-ins that await the prospective owner’s personal touch. With a family room and a library in addition to its spacious, modern living area, there is no shortage of room for both family and guests. Two bedrooms—both 20 feet long—provide tons of space in addition to the exquisite master suite.
Outside, the private terrace is the ideal place to soak in views of the tranquil, park-like grounds—though there’s no lack of views from the interior, too. A breezeway links the home to its attached, two-car garage. A full basement is also included.
This home is being offered for sale by William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty for $795,000. For more information or a showing, contact JoAnn Serra at 860-767-7488.
