Description

A long, private meandering drive delivers you to the newly renovated and reimagined Bramingham Estate,…arguably one of the more beautiful estate properties in Solebury. The commanding stone manor house sits prominently in the foreground and is flanked by an equally stately 5 bedroom/4 bathroom stone guest house. As you enter the main entrance, a grand foyer greets you with outstanding millwork in all directions. To the right is the presidential salon…a formal living room with portraits of American presidents, stately chandelier and antique fireplace. On the opposite side of this home is the morning room with built-in coffee station and an informality perfect for gatherings. The ceiling is an architectural feat of beauty and this magnificent room could be an impressive dining room, if you choose. The adjacent room is far beyond an ordinary chef’s kitchen-beautiful woodworking throughout, large granite counter space, high-end appliances and even a La Cornue wall mounted rotisserie, makes this beyond most high-end kitchens. This light-filled space is inviting to all chef’s and want to be chefs. Off of the hall, is an inviting office space that can serve as T.V. room or library. A beautifully constructed staircase leads to the primary En-Suite and two other bedrooms. The lower level boasts a studio space or activity room and a full bath, greenhouse and murphy bed. This level also contains a laundry room, wine cellar, sauna and mechanicals. The very special guest house has the feel of a lodge with open space on the first level and 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and a newly refurbished kitchen. The fireplace adds the extra charm that your family or guests will cherish. The grounds have been impeccably maintained with lush lawns, specimen plantings, stone walks, sculpture, large planters, fountain and stone ruins for al fresco dining. The brick paths lead to the spa-like crystal clean concrete pool. The large patio space encourages outdoor entertaining. The pool house contains his and her changing rooms and baths, a full caretaker or Au Pair suite and rough plumbing exists for a pool kitchen or caretaker’s kitchen. The 11 acre property also has a game ready tennis court and a bucolic pond. Bramingham is a property that offers the privacy one rarely finds today and the evolution and design of structures and natural settings that grow organically from each other. The property is protected by a state of the art security system. Note: The size of the Manor Home is 5,175.80 sq. ft. The Guest Cottage is 2,190 Sq. ft. and the pool house is 831.1 square feet.
