Property Description
This stately estate home, in pristine condition, on 1.45 impeccably-landscaped acres sits beyond impressive iron gates and a beautiful entry courtyard, awaiting your family's comfort. The massive 15,081 SF interior awes you, offering 8 BRs, 8 baths, 2 powder rooms, expansive intricately-detailed spaces for living/entertaining, and a huge finished lower level. An elevator transports you from floor to floor; a walled motor court, 3-car garage and 2-car carport provides ample parking; and a resort-like heated swimming pool and spa assures hours of pleasure for guests and loved ones. Old world classicism and architectural distinction define this exceptional home that is a dream for large families, and those who love to entertain. An elegant 2-story reception hall with a regal staircase, multiple coat closets and random-width pegged hardwood floors (found throughout the main level) welcomes you in.

While family amuse themselves in the lower level game and recreation rooms, current owners open up the whole house to guests - or enjoy private time in smaller spaces. Access oasis-like terraces from the family room, sitting room off the foyer, and sunroom off the living room with a barreled ceiling, built-in wet bar and Palladian windows on 3 exposures. On the 2nd floor is a luxurious master suite brightened by triple exposures, w/ a dressing room, French doors to a walk-in closet, and a spa bath w/ heated marble floors, soaking tub and frameless glass shower. 4 other spacious BRs are also en-suite w/ stylish baths; plus there are laundry and workout rooms.
