Timeless neoclassic design joins contemporary austere styling, with majestic fluted columns creating an opulent facade with a roof line balustrade as well as creating a sumptuous outdoor terrace area.
The estate's innate grandeur is further meticulously preserved with original hand-carved crown moldings, a marble portico, an awe-inspiring foyer, 30 ceilings, herringbone wood floors and heritage tiling.
The mansion was inspired by Louis XV's Chateau de Louveciennes and, as such, the door and window fixtures were imported from Paris.
