Colonial

It's hard to know where to start with this truly special home. Designed by the well-known local architect, Will Worland and constructed by the renowned builder, Patrick Cullinane, this home has so many wonderful features it's hard to list them all. Let's start with Deakins Lane, a quiet, bucolic country road with a real sense of community where neighbors know and care for each other. This home, built in 1965 on just under 12 acres, must have been one of the Cullinane family's early builds. It has all the trademark Cullinane features - exquisite brick work, the classic Williamsburg colonial styling, a slate roof, symmetrical double chimneys, wide pegged plank flooring, numerous fireplaces (6!!) and exceptional moldings throughout - crown, chair, wainscoting, picture moldings plus a heavy, colonial brass door lock with the antique style key. Cullinane homes have long been coveted due to the quality of the construction and the fine finishes. Along with the classic Cullinane details, this home is solidly constructed with oversized windows, a slate roof , main and upper level family rooms and multiple front and back staircases with deep stair treads, all a very costly expense for a builder. The floor plan with almost 9,000 square feet is wonderful with spacious rooms on four finished levels, a terrific back porch for entertaining and a bedroom balcony when you just need to get away from it all. Along with the spectacular home, you will love the magnificent grounds including the Cypress tree lined drive, a circular drive and a grassy backyard that goes on forever. Lacrosse, soccer, football - just name it and there's space to play! The setting surrounded by woods offers incredible privacy. In addition to the main house, these Owners constructed a Georgian style, all brick pool house with a high tray ceiling "Family Room", a kitchenette, changing room and "His" and "Her" full baths plus a separate laundry. The heated plaster pool with flagstone decking and stone retaining walls will be popular all summer long and into the early fall. Call your family and friends...the party is here!! There is plenty of room for entertaining! But don't miss one of the really unique features of this home--the pond! Stocked with bass and blue gill, the landlocked pond with two natural springs is shared by five neighbors who enjoy fishing, swimming and small boating. It's your own piece of paradise! This home is an absolute treasure and an easy place to call home. Why not make it yours today? See the virtual tour link for more detailed information. NOTE: 2 lower level full baths are in the pool house.
