Description
Tucked away far into Kenwood on one of the community's premier lots is 6416 Garnett Drive, a spectacular, newly constructed Tudor estate backing to whimsical rolling golf course vistas and enchanting sunsets. Fully custom designed from the ground up, the home features 8,500 square feet of exquisite living space comprising the finest in materials and workmanship spread across a floor plan equally apt at accommodating large scale entertaining as well as casual contemporary lifestyles. A fully gated entrance embellished with decorative, lighted stone pillars reveals beautifully planted gardens with a profusion of colorful flowering specimens. The paver driveway connects to an attached two car garage and adjoins a flagstone walkway leading to the main entrance. An artfully arched solid wooden entry door reveals an elegant reception vestibule, around which formal living and dining rooms are arranged in a classic center hall configuration. The former revolves around a roaring gas fireplace, while the latter’s resplendent curved wall of windows brings in copious amounts of natural light reflecting off the twinkling crystal chandelier. Throughout the home, exquisite millwork complements the wide plank oak floor, covering moldings, baseboards, window trim, and intricate ceilings. As is exemplary in the chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry, whose coffered ceiling is a focal point. Stacked cabinetry, a contrasting center island with integrated bar seating, commercial grade SubZero and Wolf appliances, and double glass doors leading directly onto the rear terrace establish this space as the heart of the home. The adjacent breakfast area features an integrated bench with sweeping views beyond, shared by the large family room with coffered ceiling and a wall of windows. A two-sided linear fireplace connects the space to an adjoining study, offering a tranquil retreat with private outdoor access. An upper level sitting area serves as a cozy gathering space. Branching off the space, through a set of double leather-bound doors, is the sumptuous primary suite. A raised beamed ceiling, chic linear fireplace, and private balcony overlooking the golf course complement the ubiquitous spa-inspired bath and commodious dressing rooms to establish a home within a home. Six additional secondary bedrooms are all generously proportioned and feature ensuite baths. The ethereal lower level sits above ground, allowing the entry of natural light. An entertainer’s delight, the space is amenity-rich with a full wet bar, fitness center, and professional media room. The home’s outdoor spaces are its true showstopping feature. The rear terrace spans multiple levels and houses a fully equipped, covered outdoor kitchen with top of the line appliances to accommodate al fresco entertaining on the grandest of scales. It descends down to a splendid limestone patio with multiple locations for loungers. The infinity pool is the pièce de résistance, offering glorious, unparalleled views reflected in its shimmer and a bubbling adjoining hot tub. With unrivaled views and situated on one of Kenwood’s most premium lots, 6416 Garnett Drive offers a one-of-a-kind blend of luxury and modern livability in one of the Capital Region’s most sought-after locations.
