about this property
A rare opportunity to own Gravel Hill, a timeless estate on 9.8 agriculturally zoned acres tucked away on a quiet country lane, yet only minutes from shopping, dining, top-rated schools & highway access. Steeped in history, the home was built in approximately 1906 as a wedding gift. The current owners began a meticulous restoration in 1998, thoughtfully blending the home's historic character with modern luxuries. The grounds feature a stocked pond with bass and brim for fishing, a salt water pool, organic garden and 3 fenced pastures - an ideal property for equestrian buyers. The home offers approx 3,400 sq ft, living as a 5-6 bedroom home with a rare 1st floor primary suite with two bedrooms w/direct access to the deck overlooking the pond. The chef's kitchen was completely reimagined with a center island, stone countertops and recently replaced appliances from SubZero, Thermador, and Dacor. Entertain in the parlor with its original cast iron stove or the dining room with built-in china cabinets. The first floor also includes a den, breakfast room, laundry center & powder room. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, a full bath and walk-in bulk storage. For over 25 years, the park-like grounds have been organically maintained making the 8-foot fenced-in organic garden with raised beds an ideal setting for growing vegetables. Enjoy sunrises from the expansive front porch or wander the property among the numerous fig, apple and mulberry trees. This home has been impeccably cared for with most recent upgrades including new upstairs high-end windows (2021), New Pella windows in the Breakfast room (2024), freshly paved drive (2025), new commercial grade Kitchen appliances (2024-2025), new pool liner (Summer 2025) and new saltwater system (2024). Owners have soft-washed the house, HVAC, septic & termite inspected making this historic estate truly turn-key for its next stewards. Gravel Hill has hosted weddings/engagement parties, graduations and even community events - making it not only a home, but a place of celebration.
