Set on six sunny acres among fine homes in Greenfield, this five-year young, one-owner home built by Cartier Construction offers more than 4,000 square feet of living space with an enviable backyard with pool and patio, just 9 miles to Broadway in Saratoga Springs. It's grand, yet comfortable with solid materials and thoughtfully-designed spaces.
Welcome: The modern farmhouse feel begins outside with the high-contrast black and white color scheme created with dark Andersen vinyl windows, wide vinyl board and batten siding details, dramatic gooseneck lighting, standing seam black metal roof accents and a cupola above the garage. The covered front porch is stamped, stained concrete and offers space to recline or rock and look out over your hydrangeas and natural landscaping.
Foyer: A black Thermatru entry door with side lights mirrors the window grills and greets guests and from the foyer you’ll see the vintage accents continue inside as well. Underfoot 4" oak hardwood floors begin and run throughout the first and second levels. A custom transom window with seeded glass frames the foyer and gives guests a glimpse of the open living space. There's a coat closet on your left, currently used as a pantry.
Office & Mudroom: To your right, a sliding barn door with black iron hardware adorns the entrance to the well-sized home office. A flexible space, this could also serve as a den, music room or play area. To your left you’ll find the mudroom with marble-inspired tile that runs into the half-bathroom with pocket door and Kohler fixtures, into the laundry room with another ample coat closet and to the oversized insulated, sheetrocked garage with a service door to the side yard.
Kitchen: As you follow the hardwoods into the living area the kitchen impresses to your right with both its size and finishes. Beautiful Kraftmaid cabinets define the space with Canvas white lining the perimeter, and Onyx black base cabinets for the uniquely set island with bar top between custom handcrafted posts. For the countertops you’ll find a honed black granite counter contrasting with the white cabinets for a classic antique look, and expansive marble quartz with ogee edge on the black island perfect for your baking and prep work.
The sink is a stunning Kohler porcelain apron front farm sink in white with a timeless bridge style Kohler Artifacts faucet. It looks out onto the side yard with an oversized pendant above. Flanking each side of the sink are seeded glass cabinets to feature decorative accents. The cabinets are framed with crown molding and a light rail for your under cabinet lighting, and feature soft-close doors and drawers, deep slide-out drawers, a spacious pantry cabinet, and a trash/recycling slide out base.
The upgraded KitchenAid appliance package is impressive in both design and functionality and includes the range with oven, stainless chimney-style range hood, dishwasher, drawer style microwave and full-size refrigerator. A pot-filler is centered above the range. Uniting all the elements of the kitchen is the tiled marble backsplash with contrasting grout to complete the vintage feel. The island is trimmed with raised panel detail on one side, and custom shiplap detail under the bartop that comfortably seats four stools and overlooks the living area: the perfect place to serve beverages or snacks, or for casual meals.
Living Space: The dining area is well-defined without being a formal space. Surrounded by windows on three sides you’ll have ample light even on the darkest of days, and its roomy enough for a table of twelve if desired. A rustic mixed metal and wood chandelier lights the area with warmth and style.
This living room is a comfortable stunner with space for either a large sectional or individual furniture pieces. The highlight is certainly the corner fireplace with its custom shiplap wall housing HDMI hookups for your wall-mounted TV if desired, an authentic hand-hewn barn beam sourced locally with handmade iron brackets, and set above a gas Heat ‘n Glo fireplace and remote with blue stone hearth.
Large windows and a sliding glass door let the backyard in and offer you a view of the stunning backyard pool and patio and make for easy indoor/outdoor entertaining. Best of all, this living room is entirely open to the dining area and kitchen.
First-Floor Primary Suite: Set conveniently off the main living area you’ll find a seeded glass transom window detail highlighting the master suite entrance which brings light to the both spaces without sacrificing privacy.
This generously-sized first floor Primary Suite features hardwood floors, a ceiling fan, multi-dimensional light, and more than enough room for a king sized bed under the transom window above. HDMI cable has already been installed for easy TV mounting. The walk-in closet is lined with a custom solid shelving design to maximize the storage space.
The ensuite bathroom is vintage-inspired with a herringbone tile flooring and a custom tile shower with full frameless glass enclosure. It showcases a 72-inch vanity with Kraftmaid cabinets offering plenty of storage, a granite countertop with double Kohler undermount sinks.
You’ll love the shiplap wall detail behind the vanity and the oil rubbed bronze tilting mirrors. You’ll find oil rubbed bronze hardware used throughout, including the shower controls, and a Kohler comfort-height toilet with soft closing seat.
Upstairs: This center switchback staircase is a beautiful focal point for both levels of the home with its oak treads, open railing with painted balusters, and soaring two-story shiplap wall with vintage-inspired lighting.
Upstairs, you’ll find a central landing between three bedrooms. Each one has hardwood floors, two windows, a ceiling fan/light fixture, and lighted closets with solid-wood doors. Two look out to the rear of the home and are mirror images, very generously-sized. The third bedroom is smaller and faces the front yard with a custom built-in bookshelf.
Off the landing is the generous shared full bathroom. It’s light, bright, and features a 72” Kraftmaid vanity with double sinks and solid-surface countertop, chic industrial style light fixtures, oversized tile floors, a tub/shower combo with transom window above it, Kohler comfort-height toilet with soft-closing seat, vaulted ceiling, and a bonus laundry hookup in the larger closet with additional linen closet as well.
Basement & Mechanicals: Finished professionally by the builder after purchase to match the upstairs, the 9' basement offers two egress windows and over 1000 square feet of incredible extra living space! There's an open living space that makes a terrific playroom, home school space or office, and there is a fitness room. There is one separate room that works well as a home office/guest space with shiplap wall details. There's a third full bathroom here as well! Storage is at the ready too and mechanicals are housed here including a propane-fired forced air furnace, a full-house air exchange system, a 200-amp electric panel and an on-demand propane-fired water heater. Outside, you'll find the central air condenser, a buried 500-gallon propane tank, a drilled well and a standard septic system with leech field.
Backyard: In 2019 the owners added a beautiful 18' x 36 rectangular saltwater heated pool with black vinyl liner. Installed by Casual Living, it features a built-in bench, natural stone fountain, diving board, and lighting. It's wrapped in stamped concrete with a cantilever edge, providing incredible patio space for lounging. A black iron fence encloses the space and it's beautiful framed by billowy white hydrangeas and nature-inspired landscaping.
Barn: An additional freestanding barn was built by the original builder with two overhead doors, a walk-up loft space for storage. The building is heated and trimmed in red vinyl siding to complement the home.
Location: Set on six acres, there is ample yard space on each side and woods behind the home that stretch for hundreds of feet. Part of the Belle Estates of Greenfield community, you'll find quiet and privacy with the peace of mind that you’re part of a community. Best of all, you're in Greenfield Center, Saratoga School District, just 9 miles from Broadway in Saratoga Springs and convenient to the Capital Region and North Country.
