About This Property
Originally designed in 1925 by renowned architect Lewis Bowman,
this extraordinary residence has been meticulously reimagined by
Lucio DiLeo of Studio RAI Architects and its current owners through
a comprehensive, four-year, world-class renovation. Seamlessly
blending timeless architectural beauty with modern luxury, this
nearly 9,200 SF masterpiece is defined by exquisite design, fine
craftsmanship, and resort-style amenities. Set back along a private
drive, the home's stately facade gives way to a world of refined
elegance. Stone steps wind toward an enchanting terrace and a
glass-enclosed loggia, opening into interiors that are nothing
short of breathtaking. A dramatic, balconied foyer overlooks a
grand living room featuring a 14-foot soaring beamed ceiling,
striking Palladian windows, and an imported 7x6-foot limestone
fireplace, setting the tone for the extraordinary quality found
throughout the home. The formal dining room, wrapped in silk-lined
walls and centered around a second fireplace, is both luxurious and
welcoming-ideal for elegant entertaining or intimate gatherings.
Every inch of this residence reflects a deep commitment to
artisanal detail and exceptional materials. At the heart of the
home is a chef's dream kitchen-bright and expansive, with a
stunning barrel-arched ceiling and views of the rear gardens. A
12-foot island with a champagne sink, natural quartz countertops,
and top-of-the-line appliances-including a La Cornue Grand Palais
180 range, La Cornue Flamberge rotisserie, Blue Star electric oven
with pizza stone, Miele fridge and freezer, steam and speed oven,
and separate coffee station-creates the ultimate culinary
experience. A custom Vaclav brass and pewter hood, custom cabinetry
by Nils Kasperson, a large pantry with an ice maker, a kitchen
office, and a fully outfitted mudroom add both beauty and function.
Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen, the spectacular Great Room is
the home's showpiece-anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace and
enhanced by custom wood beams, a full built-in entertainment wet
bar, bespoke built-in shelving, an 82-inch hidden drop-down TV, and
state-of-the-art AV. Adjacent is a light-filled breakfast/dining
room surrounded by Palladian windows that open to a private terrace
with its own fireplace-perfect for al fresco dining and quiet
evenings. Upstairs, five luxurious bedroom suites (easily
convertible to six) each offer en-suite baths with steam showers,
walk-in closets, AV systems, and custom built-ins. The primary
suite is a serene retreat featuring a cathedral ceiling, private
balcony, soundproof linen walls, a hidden 65-inch TV, and a lavish
spa bath with radiant-heated floors, gas fireplace, soaking tub,
and steam shower. Included in the 9,200 SF is 3,000 SF of upper-
and lower-level, fully permitted space with infrastructure in place
to build out a myriad of amenities such as a home gym, golf
simulator, game room, home office, wine room, and more. The
estate's outdoor spaces are equally impressive, replete with
endless stone walls and bluestone patios throughout. Designed for
entertaining on a grand scale, the grounds feature a 42-foot heated
pool and spa, a 70x60 sports court, multiple Lynx grill stations,
expansive dining and lounge terraces, koi ponds, a secret garden
with a swing, two cozy fireplace terraces, and ample space for a
massive party tent. A fully automated Savant/Lutron lighting, AV
control, and surveillance system ensures comfort and security in
this private paradise. Completing the estate is a
temperature-controlled, customized two-car garage with 11-foot
ceilings outfitted for two auto lifts to accommodate two SUVs and
two sports vehicles, plus additional driveway parking for eight
vehicles-providing a total of 12 parking spaces. Set in a quiet,
exclusive enclave just minutes from Bronxville village and a quick
commute to Manhattan-all in a community celebrated for its
top-rated schools and exceptional quality of life.
