Enjoy a spectacular swimming pool with pool house, tennis court, guest cottage, expansive terraces, and meticulously landscaped grounds offering complete privacy. A six-car garage provides abundant space for collectors and enthusiasts alike. No detail has been overlooked in the extensive capital improvements, which include a sophisticated Lutron lighting system, automatic custom draperies, a state-of-the-art Bowers & Wilkins sound system, Honeywell Vista 128 security system, 32-camera surveillance system, 2N Verso gated entry with keypad and vehicle camera monitoring, all-new windows and doors throughout the home, updated designer lighting, custom cast-iron staircase railings, new well water filtration system, and countless additional enhancements.

This is a rare offering where timeless architecture, cutting-edge technology, resort-caliber amenities, and one of Westchester County’s most desirable locations come together to create an estate unlike any other.
