NEW PRICE....Positioned in the esteemed enclave of South Wayne, the majestic three-story colonial estate at 221 South Aberdeen Ave stands as a testament to architectural beauty and sprawling luxury across nearly four acres of meticulously landscaped grounds.

As you traverse the elegantly winding driveway, the stately presence of this three-story colonial marvel captures the essence of timeless elegance and substantial stature. Entering through the majestic front-to-back foyer, guests are greeted with an immediate view of the sophisticated living and dining areas, marked by deep windowsills, extensive millwork, and gleaming hardwood floors that echo the charm of yesteryear with modern finesse. The grandeur extends into the 2000 addition that integrates seamlessly with the original structure, featuring a two-story great room that embodies the pinnacle of design excellence. This room is highlighted by soaring ceilings with wooden beams and cherry floors that radiate under the influx of natural light. A hand-carved bar, private office, and a strategically placed full bathroom within this space ensure that both relaxation and functionality are catered to with luxurious ease.

Adjacent to the living room, an indoor glass-enclosed swimming pool offers a spa-like retreat amidst lush greenery, creating a serene environment that blends relaxation with the beauty of nature. The pool area, with its soaring ceilings and tranquil ambiance, invites peaceful enjoyment and serves as a stunning focal point for both daily relaxation and elegant entertaining. The great room’s lower level conceals a spacious six-car garage, which provides substantial utility space and vehicle storage, reinforcing the estate’s blend of elegance and practicality. A grand staircase from the foyer ascends to the second floor, where the expansive primary suite awaits, offering a private retreat complete with a walk-in two-story closet and an opulent bath. There are 5 additional bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms, meticulously arranged to provide comfort and privacy for family and guests, each room framed by unique views of the surrounding greenery. The outdoor area of the estate is a highlight in its own right, featuring a flagstone patio that stretches along the back of the house, shaded awnings for relaxation, and direct access to the lush gardens. The grounds are an entertainer’s dream, complete with multiple terraces, scenic walking paths, and a championship-sized tennis court, all set against a backdrop of stunning natural beauty.
