Property Description

Welcome to 115 Autumn Lane, an immaculate custom Colonial tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac in desirable Covered Bridge Estates. Thoughtfully designed by the original owners, this distinctive residence was inspired by the historic Dr. Barraud House in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia and featured in Metropolitan Magazine in 1993. Curb appeal abounds with a manicured front yard, brick walkway, five dormers, and a welcoming portico accented by distinctive brickwork, Chippendale railings, and a hand-forged boot scraper. Handmade three- panel redwood shutters, wide-muntin Pella windows, and an extra-wide front door further enhance the home’s timeless Colonial character. Inside, a wide foyer offers a gracious layout ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The wide foyer opens to formal living and dining rooms, where hand-crafted woodwork, raised panels, dentil crown molding, and chair railings showcase the craftsmanship of local builder and artisan John Miller. Original character continues with remarkable wide-plank hardwood flooring in the foyer, stairway, living room, and dining room, salvaged from an old Pennsylvania home, refinished by Mr. Miller, and secured with specially made rosehead nails. The rear of the first floor features an expansive kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, an island with bar sink, and pantry. The open living area also includes an informal dining area, half bath, and family room with beaned ceiling, fireplace with hand-crafted mantel, and bow window overlooking the backyard. A beautiful, screened porch with brick flooring and ceiling fan extends the living space outdoors, offering a peaceful setting for entertaining or relaxing while overlooking the manicured law, colonial outbuilding for added storage, and perennial and vegetable gardens. A thoughtfully designed “L”-shaped wing adds modern convenience while honoring the home’s Colonial inspiration. This wing includes a laundry room with laundry chute, utility sink, built-in ironing board, cabinetry, and storage, plus a half bath and oversized two-car garage with lighted workbench and vise. Garage stairs provide convenient access to the second floor. The extra-wide foyer staircase leads to four bedrooms, two full baths, and a spacious open landing large enough for additional furnishings. The primary suite features hardwood flooring, a fireplace, walk-in closet, additional closet, and a large bath with linen closet, laundry chute, double-sink corner vanity, whirlpool tub, walk-in shower, bidet, and arched windows. Two additional bedrooms include walk-in closets and share a full bath with tub/shower and double-sink vanity.

Additional highlights include three wood-burning fireplaces, 9-foot first-floor ceilings, vinyl beaded siding, lighted crawl space with moisture barrier, alarm system, floored attic, abundant storage, irrigation, mature trees, and landscaped grounds. Exceptionally maintained by its original owners, the home features numerous updates, including a new roof in 2019, upstairs HVAC in 2013, downstairs HVAC in 2025, natural gas boiler for heat and hot water in 2022, stainless steel refrigerator, oven and dishwasher in 2020, central vacuum system in 2025, built-in microwave in 2025, hardwood flooring in the master bedroom in 2020, new carpet in the family room and bonus room in 2022, and a security system upgraded to wireless in 2019.
