Thirteen Ballantine Road is an outstanding custom-crafted home located on the attractive East side of Mendham Township. Established on a polished and private parcel, this well-designed colonial merges curb appeal with purposeful living. A handsome entryway with an arched window reveals a gracious two-story reception area with curved stairs. A library with french doors and custom millwork, a formal living room and guest powder room surround the foyer. Stepping through the front hall the heartbeat of the home is revealed: a significant cook's kitchen with center island seating as well as a separate breakfast dining space. Custom cabinetry and granite tops are found throughout the kitchen and butler pantry. Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances and a true walk-in pantry are but a few of the stylish amenities. The open design allows the vaulted great room with fireplace and custom mantle with built-in cabinets to provide a fabulous entertaining expanse that absorbs rear property views through abundant light-filled glass. Formal dining is conveniently located adjacent to the butler pantry with wet bar, lighted glass cabinets and wine storage. A spectacular atrium with French doors opening to a covered bluestone porch is arranged on the south wing of the home. Glass filled throughout with detailed millwork and tumbled stone floors, this delightful space features a modern home office, custom mud room and expansive laundry suite, in addition to a second powder room. The second level primary suite is quite voluminous, containing a sitting room and a substantial custom closet and dressing room. A vaulted spa bath incorporates a double sink vanity, soaking tub, glass shower and private water closet. Three additional generously sized bedrooms are found on this floor, with one being ensuite, and a double sink vanity bath placed between bedrooms three and four. An open stair lower level is appreciated for further entertaining options with a dry bar and refrigerator, recreation area, additional work from home zone and vast amounts of organized storage and a workshop area. Curated design continues outdoors, with a custom gunite pool and a waterfall spa. Surrounded by Tennessee blue stone, pavers and lush landscaping, the pool is complemented by mature specimen trees, a level expanse of lawn and a lovely dining area set in close proximity to the kitchen. An arbor, quintessential wood fence, Belgian curbing and rock detail and a built in basketball hoop add to the outdoor appeal of this magnificent home.
