An expansive lawn framed by stately cypress trees offers an idyllic setting for everything from a game of croquet to elegant gatherings & unforgettable celebrations. At the center of this legacy estate sits a Tudor-style main residence w/ 3 bedrooms + Bonus Rm. & 3 bathrooms. Originally built in 1925 and restored over generations without losing what made it timeless: vaulted ceilings. hardwood floors, & an arched picture window that frames the garden view beyond - turning it into a living piece of art. A circular staircase leads down to one of the home’s best-kept secrets, a stone-walled wine cave & intimate tasting room reminiscent of an old-world speakeasy. A private guest cottage with 1.5 baths completes the estate, set on its own among the trees. Owned solar, a newer roof, updated electric, & newer HVAC round out the practical side of this truly magical property. Private, peaceful, and unthreatened from future development, Cromwell Gardens is your sanctuary in the city.
