OLD WESTBURY. On an island of over seven-million people just east of New York City, this exceptional four-acre estate, with its expansive stone-frame-and-glass villa, offers the perfect getaway where you can stretch out and relax in supreme serenity. Approached by a long circular drive, it welcomes you with a sleek exterior, crab orchard stone walkway, and pillared portico. Sweeping lawns with mature trees, perennial beds, and flowering shrubs invite you to explore the park-like grounds revealing granite patios, a sparkling inground, salt-water, Gunite pool, playground, and tennis court. On a quiet cul-de-sac lane, this special retreat is in the center of a community of equally grand properties bordered by three universities, golf courses, and a tennis/polo club – all in a corner of Old Westbury. Part of the North Shore’s fabled “Gold Coast,” this village’s rolling wooded hillsides dotted with magnificent estates has been a bedroom community for Manhattan’s elite for over a century and is only a thirty-minute commute to the city. It is just a short drive from boating, museums, premier shopping, beaches, and renowned hospitals. As you enter the home through entry double doors (flanked by guest closets), you will be enthralled by the immense space before you. Granite pillars support a second-floor balcony accessed by a striking travertine floating staircase beside a two-story wall of rough-hewn stone matching that on the exterior. Gleaming travertine floors end atop steps down to the living/dining great room. Sunny vistas of the rear property flood the space through triple-sliding-glass doors with transom lights in the dining area that opens to an al fresco dining patio, and through a wall of windows in the spacious living-room area. Clerestories wrapping around below the extra-tall ceiling further illuminate the space. Accessed from the foyer and the great room, the expansive, sky-lit, renovated eat-in kitchen is ideal for entertaining on a grand scale. It offers ample hand-glazed custom cabinetry with granite countertop, basket-wave marble backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, built-in wine rack, and large center island with seating area and glass cooktop with grill. Marble floors flow into a sunny breakfast area where a hallway leads to a cabana suite with gym and full bath, a laundry room, a guest suite with bath, basement stairs, and access to the attached three-car garage. The kitchen further provides access to a huge sunroom. With ceramic tile floors and three walls of sliding windows, plus two sets of sliders that access two granite patios, it is perfect for summer entertaining and year-round enjoyment with heating and air-conditioning. Also, off the foyer, are a spacious library/family room featuring extensive custom cabinetry and bookcases, an attractive powder room, and a palatial master suite. This capacious getaway features a huge bedroom with sliders to the rear property, a generous master bath with twin vanities, whirlpool tub, and two-person steam shower, plus two walk-in closets. One includes a spiral staircase to a versatile second floor room with bath that can serve as a study, gym, studio, or nursery. This room connects with a u-shaped balcony, overlooking the foyer and great room, that leads on the other side to two sunny bedrooms, with baths en suite, and to a family room, presently used as a study, with sliders to a large outdoor balcony overlooking the pool. The basement is partially finished with a spacious recreation room and includes an area that could be finished as a wine cellar or sauna, plus it offers room for utilities and storage. With a neutral palate, soaring sky-lit rooms, seven bedrooms, six full baths, a powder room, and a huge first-floor master suite on an incredible four-acre property, this amazing home is ready for you to move in and create your own little piece of paradise.
