About this home
Welcome to 11724 Gainsborough Road, an exceptional residence that masterfully combines classic architectural charm with modern luxury. Thoughtfully reimagined during a full-scale addition and renovation in 2012, this home offers refined craftsmanship and upscale finishes at every turn. From the moment you step through the custom-imported iron front door, you’re greeted by a grand two-story foyer that sets the stage for what’s to come.
Inside, soaring 12-foot ceilings and oversized Marvin windows flood the space with natural light, creating sun-drenched interiors. Gracefully arched entryways and rounded bullnose corners add a touch of architectural elegance, elevating the timeless design. Throughout the home, a mix of gas and wood-burning fireplaces, coffered ceilings, and custom-built-ins bring warmth, depth, and character to every room.
At the heart of the home is a spectacular kitchen, perfect for entertaining. Dual sinks, three ovens, two warming drawers, two microwaves, two dishwashers, and a butler’s station with an additional sink make meal preparation a breeze. Hand-built cabinetry, luxury granite countertops, natural Italian stone floors, a walk-in pantry, two Sub-Zero refrigerators, and a wine fridge ensure this culinary space is as functional as it is beautiful.
The grand living room and inviting family room flow seamlessly into the kitchen, creating an open and connected layout ideal for both relaxed living and entertaining. The family room features a hand-crafted stone fireplace, adding both warmth and character, while the formal dining room sets the stage for memorable gatherings. Two thoughtfully placed powder rooms offer added convenience for guests. The cozy library, with its rich custom mahogany woodwork, built-ins, and chandelier-lit sitting area behind French doors, invites you to unwind. For work or study, the dedicated office offers a quiet retreat, complete with built-in storage and workspace.
Two oversized garages—one for two cars and one for a single vehicle—offer abundant space for storage or hobbies. Both garages offer direct access to a spacious mudroom outfitted with custom cabinetry.
Upstairs, six generously sized bedrooms provide ample space for family and guests. The luxurious Primary Suite boasts vaulted ceilings, a built-in refrigerator, and a spa-style bathroom with high-end finishes.
The finished lower level is a perfect space for recreation and relaxation, featuring a built-in play area, multiple storage rooms, a gym, a full bathroom with a steam shower, and a private guest suite ideal for in-laws or an au pair.
Step outside into the expansive backyard, designed for effortless entertaining and relaxation.

The impressive outdoor kitchen features a built-in grill with a natural gas connection, a sink for added convenience, and ample counter space for al fresco dining. Other highlights include a dedicated dog shower for pampered pets and raised garden beds, perfect for growing herbs, vegetables, or flowers.
