    What's special

    Welcome to 25 Taunton Lane! A timeless legacy reimagined.... Nestled within the desirable Taunton area of Newtown, close to RT. 84, serene Taunton Lake & the best of Newtown's local amenities. This breathtaking 4.55-acre estate represents 1930s character seamlessly woven into a sophisticated modern transformation. Renovated from the inside out, the property achieves a perfect harmony between high-end luxury and preserved history. This private compound features two distinct residences: a sprawling 4BR/3.5BTH main home and a charming 2 BR guest cottage, together offering a lifestyle of versatility and comfort. As you step into the main residence, the home's storied past is immediately honored through the careful preservation of original pine flooring, built-ins, 3 fireplaces(2 wood/1 gas) and intricate moldings. These antique details now glow alongside contemporary upgrades, including 7 inch wide white oak hardwoods that flow through the airy light-filled rooms along with upgraded fixtures & finishes. The heart of the home is a brand-new custom chef's kitchen w/GE CAFE appliances and anchored by a seven-foot island-a culinary masterpiece that transitions effortlessly into the grand living spaces. For those who embrace an indoor-outdoor lifestyle, both the great room and kitchen open onto two new bluestone patios, providing an elegant setting for dining while overlooking the lush gardens, historic stone walls and sprawling lawns. The sophisticated rejuvenation continues on the second level, where the layout has been masterfully redesigned for modern living. The primary suite serves as a true sanctuary, featuring a private fireplace for cozy evenings and a luxury bath appointed with marble tile. 3 additional generous bedrooms provide ample space and comfort, supported by 2 beautifully renovated full baths. To meet the demands of today's lifestyle, this level also includes a dedicated office space-perfect for remote work-and a conveniently located laundry room, blending high-end design with everyday practicality. The renovation extends far beneath the surface, ensuring the home operates with effortless modern efficiency. From the brand new septic system, new propane HVAC system, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, new garage doors and meticulously updated bathrooms, every detail has been refined to pair sleek modern finishes with classic style. Beyond the main house, the estate continues to impress with a 2 bedroom guest cottage-an ideal space for an in-law suite, a private creative studio, or an income-producing rental. The grounds are further enhanced by a 2 car garage and a 200 sq ft studio w/electric, perfect for a work shop or hobbies. For the aspiring or seasoned equestrian, the property offers incredible potential, with ample acreage to accommodate up to 4 horses. More than just a home, 25 Taunton Lane is a compound designed for generations to come, where the elegance of the past has been perfectly preserved for the future. Don't miss the opportunity to become the new owner of this unique property.
