Updated windows, bathrooms, electrical, HVAC have given this home the needed welcome into the 21st Century without ruining the architectural integrity.Rooms and hallways have been window-lined to provide spectacular views of manicured trees that have been carefully lit to provide 365 nights of perfect moonlight. From your master, relax out on your own private patio or join the party on the upper flagstone patio. Strolling through the trees along a flagstone path and down a winding staircase leads you to the most secluded portion of this estate aptly named "The Retreat". Here at The Retreat, an approximate 400 sqft flagstone patio and 22' tall pergola constructed out of 58 tons of rock strategically laid and reinforced with cement and rebar to create your own show stopper. Here the day fades away with views of endless treetops and wildlife. And as the day turns to night, enjoy the firepit and warm light of the iron chandelier.
