When an estate can illustrate its own story without words, then you know you have discovered something truly unique.

The formal dining room boasts hand-painted de Gournay wallpaper with hand-painted turquoise Chinese fretwork moldings applied over antique mirroring adding dramatic sparkle. Cozy up in the Great Room paneled in antique pine from England or enjoy after-dinner cocktails in the red lacquered lounge that beautifully defines this unparalleled entertaining space.
