The living room is huge and bright—arched windows doing the most.

Details
This place is huge and has a really unique vibe. It's designed with a European feel and sits on a massive 40 acres, all gated for extra privacy. Inside, you've got over 29,000 square feet spread across three levels. There are 8 bedrooms and a whopping 15 bathrooms, which is pretty impressive. The construction uses timeless stone and slate, and they've clearly paid attention to detail. You get a great view of a private 7-acre lake, and there’s even a private beach. One of the standout features is the custom equestrian stable, which they say is modeled after Ralph Lauren's. It even has living quarters, so it's not just for the horses. There are also five garages, so plenty of space for vehicles. It feels like a true legacy property.
