About This Home

This home is truly unlike any other in the area! Located just a quick drive down tree-lined May Road from the Village of Potsdam, this home is conveniently situated, yet sitting on a large 36.8-acre parcel giving it a sense of true privacy. Wind up the meticulously maintained paved driveway and find yourself atop an impressive hill with sweeping views, then proceed along the garden-lined walkway to the front door. Thoughtfully designed doesn't even begin to cut it! Your first impression stepping inside is expansive as you take in 22-foot-high ceilings with windows perfectly framing the in-ground pool, meanwhile to your right is a stunning curved staircase leading upstairs, where it connects to a de facto bridge between the two wings. At the front door, to your left you will find your formal dining area, to your right you'll find a first-floor bedroom and a full bathroom, but straight ahead you will find the centerpiece — the large sunken living room with its gorgeous fireplace and less obvious but equally impressive features like speakers built into the floor. With the kitchen flowing beautifully into the living room, you are sure to enjoy the perks of such a well-appointed kitchen! With beautiful stone countertops, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances like the Sub-Zero refrigerator, you would almost think the incredible culinary offering is done, but pass through the kitchen to find access to an outdoor kitchen and sitting area big enough for another table and chairs, or a seating area. Also on the first floor, you will find a library, which could easily serve as an office or a bedroom, and a second set of stairs leading upstairs. Upstairs, you will find a bedroom, full bathroom, and walk-in closet to the right as you finish climbing the stairs. As you walk down the hall, you'll have access to another bedroom with a full bath, but this one has a bonus room with great built-in shelving and direct access to the hall. Next, on the right, you'll find the primary suite with a bedroom so spacious it has its own pool-view seating area, a great bathroom with a beautiful view, and a walk-in closet of your dreams. As you reach the end of the hallway, you have a laundry room directly ahead (new laundry units) for maximum convenience. To the left, you'll find an incredible bedroom with high ceilings, skylights, picture-frame views, and another dreamy walk-in closet. We're not done yet! Head down to the basement for an incredible treat — a new Dolby Atmos theater, an audiophile's dream! The basement also has a pool table area, built-in cabinetry, a full bathroom, storage space, and the utility room. Head back upstairs and toward the pool yard, where you will find a heated 66x36 in-ground pool with a diving board, a pool house with a kitchen and a full bathroom, plus a storage room for pool-related items, access to your raised garden beds with an irrigation system, seating areas, and beautiful landscaping. The list of high-end features this home has to offer is long, but near the top has to be the Bose whole-home sound system and a second system in the pool yard. Custom red oak doors and woodwork set the standard for attention to detail in this home, and you will find similar quality work in the new hardwood floors in the upstairs bedrooms. And with the fireplace in the living room, this home is well-suited to be enjoyed all year round. No written description is going to effectively convey the degree to which this home is remarkably designed, built well, and finished with incredible attention to detail — all while being outfitted with the most up-to-date tech for temperature control and audio. It sits on an absolutely incredible piece of land, with the added bonus of an ideal location. Seeing is believing, so schedule your private showing before it's too late.
