The Community
This exceptional private residence was built on Hoccanum road in
the historic, and picturesque town of Marlborough, Connecticut. Located
just 20 minutes from Downtown Hartford, Marlborough offers the ideal
location for those wishing to live a country lifestyle, but needing
the convenience of a short commute. The benefits of excellent schools,
beautiful parks, and a small town atmosphere only add to the desirability
of this exceptional location.
The Site
Developed as part of one of Marlborough’s most prestigious communities,
Hoccanum road is a short cul-de-sac consisting of only four exceptional
home sites, surrounded by old New England stone walls, and abutting the
Blackledge River. The site for this one of a kind custom home consists
of over 2.5 acres and features mature specimen trees, and beautiful rock
outcroppings. The site also features wonderful southern exposure, is
bordered on one side by an old stone wall, and overlooks a protected
forest preserve and the rushing Blackledge River to the rear.
The Home
This exceptional custom home was designed to meet the owners desire for
a traditionally styled home, that would accommodate their need to have
a first floor master suite and large spaces for entertaining while still
managing to capture the beautiful views to the rear. The home is over
4000 square feet and features three bedrooms, three and a half baths,
a grand two story foyer, a library with coffered ceiling, a formal dining
room, a two story great room with clerestory windows and a see through
fireplace, and an exceptional chefs kitchen. Uccello Development has
been charged with the task of building the home with a virtually maintenance
free exterior while retaining the high level of detail and authenticity
required by the homeowner. Some of the exterior features of the home
include stone accents, a wide columned front porch, and a brick paver
drive. In addition the interior of the home will feature such luxurious
touches as granite countertops, custom cabinetry and built-ins, extra
wide casings, layered crown molding and hardwood flooring throughout
the house.
