This nearly 10,000 sq ft, two-story Greek Revival residence is among the finest ever built, meticulously cared for, and recently renovated to a pristine level rarely seen among National Historic Register homes. The expert architect-led renovation encompasses a complete transformation, integrating all modern amenities and conveniences, all while preserving the home's original 1842 elegance. Key architectural elements include 17-inch thick, Flemish bond brick walls, oversized 6-over-6 windows, 13 fireplaces, hand-laid plaster walls, and tongue-and-groove flooring. The main home features well-proportioned rooms with 11-foot ceilings on the first floor and 12-foot ceilings on the second floor, capturing spectacular views in every direction. Seven spacious bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath featuring high-end fixtures and finishes, are serviced by three separate staircases, allowing seamless flow to elegant common areas. The chef's kitchen, equipped with custom cabinetry and a large center island, is perfect for both intimate family meals and grand entertaining. The formal dining room, grand living room, and opulent library provide luxurious spaces for hosting guests. Perched at 1,200 feet, the residence overlooks a beautiful 6-acre lake stocked with koi, bass, and catfish. Outdoor amenities include a picturesque gazebo on an island, boating, miles of trails perfect for horse riding, hiking, and biking, as well as meadows, forests, pastures, caves, spring-fed pools, waterfalls, and streams teeming with life. Additional improvements include a well-maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom Gatehouse, an oversized garage attached to a porte cochere, a stable, a studio, and other outbuildings. These facilities offer versatility and convenience for various needs, from hosting guests to accommodating staff and hobbies. In addition to the main home's 9,723 sq ft of living space and the Gatehouse's 2,260 sq ft, there is an extra 489 sq ft in a detached 2-room studio, 3,648 sq ft of storage in a walk-up attic, and 2,321 sq ft in the workshop/basement.
