Property details
About 36 Brearly Rd
The stunning centerpiece of a quiet Russell Estates cul de sac is just as pretty and perfectly maintained inside as its crisp white exterior suggests. The two-story entrance gives a spectacular welcome, and a designer’s professional touch is immediately noticeable. Airy ceilings and sky-high windows continue in the great room ahead. Across from a marble fireplace, French doors open to a pergola-capped stone terrace overlooking the sweeping yard and tall trees bordering Greenway Meadows beyond. With so many options for serving meals, both indoors and out, the current owners chose to use the formal dining room as a sitting area right off the kitchen, showing one of many ways this home adapts to the ever-changing needs of a lively household. A high-end renovation by Kathy Bogle Designs elevated the kitchen’s functionality and warmth. Stylish cage fixtures hang over Cielo quartzite with a modern leathered finish and glass-front cabinetry is lit from within. Pull-up island seating is delightful in the presence of huge corner windows. Private spaces on the first floor include a guest wing, complete with a sitting room, and a library enveloped in rich wood panelling. Through double doors, the upstairs primary suite is beyond spacious with a soaking tub and separate shower in the updated bath. Customized closets are a perk of every bedroom, including two across the lofty hallway served by a sparkling white bath designed for easy sharing. Don’t miss the basement, as it’s fully finished with a wealth of storage, even a cedar walk-in closet. Short-cuts through the sought-after neighborhood lead past the tennis courts to sidewalks that point the way into town.
