Description: Designed by Wendy Posard, this five-bedroom Cape Cod-style two-story home has a traditional floor plan on roughly a quarter of an acre of enticing landscape. The kitchen, with a butcher-block island at its center, includes a Viking range, granite counters and integrated appliances. A butler’s pantry stands between the kitchen and a formal dining room finished with custom wallpaper and tall wainscoting. The home features two family rooms — one off the kitchen and another beside the foyer with divided light windows and a coffered ceiling. All the bedrooms, including a master suite with a spa bathroom, are located on the upper level.

Don’t miss: The garden patio. Located on the side of the house and accessed through the family room off the kitchen, this patio has expansive dimensions and a built-in barbecue set within a stone chimney.
