57 PROSPECT HILL AVENUE, SUMMIT
Introduction
Welcome to 57 Prospect Hill Avenue in Summit. This classic Northside Colonial has cosmopolitan appeal and has been completely renovated-to-perfection with custom detailing and bespoke decor, while keeping the elegance and beauty of its original character.
First Floor
Walk up the bluestone pathway and across the covered front porch to enter a gracious foyer with a picturesque, rounded staircase. Off the foyer find a 1st floor office with a fireplace and a large, stately living room with a stunning marble fireplace, dentil molding and beautiful architectural details.
Follow the gleaming hardwood floors to the banquet-sized, formal dining room with custom lighting. Both the dining room and living room have French doors leading to a fabulously decorated sunroom with Bluestone floors. Adjoining the dining room is a spacious, gourmet kitchen. The kitchen has white wood cabinetry and professional grade, stainless steel appliances (Subzero and Viking), that complement the Danby marble counters and custom-designed hood. The center island has a sink, wine fridge and bar seating and the kitchen has a separate breakfast area with a built-in banquet — perfect for socializing in the heart of the home. The chef’s kitchen opens to the expansive Great Room that has a gas fireplace, beautiful built-in cabinets and window seating where you will spend your days with friends and family.
Two powder rooms, a mudroom, back entrance and over-sized garage complete this level.
Second Floor
Upstairs, the primary suite is warmed by another gas fireplace and multiple windows, giving the room an abundance of natural light. This wonderful primary suite boasts an amazing California Closet with room for everything as well as a luxurious primary bathroom featuring Carrara marble floors and walls, two custom vanities, a soaking tub and a glass steam shower.
Two additional bedrooms on the 2nd floor have ensuite baths and two other spacious bedrooms share a renovated hall bath. Stark carpeting throughout most of the house adds a level for luxury for all to enjoy.
