This extraordinary home manages to do the impossible: it offers over 17,000 square feet of architectural brilliance while maintaining incredible warmth and intimacy. While the scale is undeniably grand, the floor plan is a masterclass in human-scale design, prioritizing an unhurried flow and everyday livability. From the moment you arrive, the imported Spanish railings and brick-and-granite faade establish a sense of enduring quality, yet the layout ensures that the first impression is as inviting as it is stately. The brilliance of the interior lies in its intentional proportions.
