Property Description
On the main level, the primary suite and welcoming living areas are designed with comfort in mind. The gourmet kitchen features an AGA cooker with four ovens, six burners, and a built-in warmer, as well as a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, KitchenAid refrigerator drawers, Miele built-in coffee system, wine fridge, and ice maker. The lower level offers three additional bedrooms, a cozy den with fireplace and billiards table, a mini kitchen, and a wine cellar.
This remarkable property features two outdoor fire pits and a wood-burning fireplace, two indoor gas fireplaces, and one indoor wood-burning fireplace, along with a generator, a dehumidifier, and wood shingle roof. Designer wallpapers and fabrics from Bennison, Scalamandre, Colefax & Fowler, Schumacher, Chelsea, Kerry Joyce, and Rose Tarlow, along with custom lamps and lampshades, complete the home's refined character.
Every detail has been lovingly considered - from Farrow & Ball paints to custom window coverings, electronic shades, blackout drapes, and even monogrammed linens and headboards bearing the name “Whispering Falls.”
Enjoy a morning walk to the stone-edged herb and flower garden, originally designed in collaboration with Stephen Baldwin Landscaping. Rest for a moment under the hydrangeas on the antique bench and breathe in the fragrance of climbing roses, blue hydrangeas, and lilies. In the evening, toast the day around one of two fire pits. Lower level or creekside - while relaxing in Adirondack chairs adorned with embroidered pillows.
When it's cold or rainy, snuggle up in front of the porch fireplace on beautiful wicker chairs, tucked behind weatherproof curtains.
Truly, this property has it all: heavenly mountain views, a creek and waterfall, lush gardens, edible herbs and vegetables, and above all - peace. Whispering Falls is not just a home, but a sanctuary created with love and care.
