Old world majesty intertwines with 21st century luxury in this new colonial mansion. High above the world, with incredible views of the nyc skyline stretching out along the horizon, this hilltop masterpiece represents the ultimate in today's living, commandingly set deep within a private gated community. European-style craftsmanship brings its 12,000 square feet to life in timeless style, with elegant appointments reminiscent of a bygone era. From the copper accents in the roofing that lend gleaming complement to its distinctive architecture, to the finest italian marble floors, banisters, and moldings, seemingly no expense was spared in its creation. To step inside is to enter a place of wonderment. In the foyer, a pair of marble staircases ascends regally upwards, foreshadowing the sumptuous entertaining spaces that follow. The elaborately adorned formal living room evokes the refined aura of a french grand salon, as palladian-topped french doors dance across an entire wall. The exquisite fireplace, one of eight in sleek marble, shares its peek-a-boo hearth with an entertainment/media room that is ballroom-like in its elegance and appointed with a marble -topped cherry bar. The formal dining room with inlaid hardwood floor effortlessly seats large dinner parties and is accompanied by a cherry butler's pantry for ease of service. The resplendent public rooms are complemented by informal spaces equally superior in function and aesthetics. Among these are a state-of-the-art kitchen equipped with the latest and best of everything, a breakfast area that serves up far-reaching views of the nyc skyline, and a truly remarkable library rich in cherry wood. Each of the six bedrooms has its own unique feeling, as do the baths that accompany them. A private elevator conveniently whisks to all four floors, from the walkout lower level all the way up to the walk-up attic. Across the back of this grand residence, broad classic terraces bring the new york city vistas even closer and are especially magical at nighttime, when the city lights sparkle beneath a canopy of stars. Carved into the side of a mountain, with professional landscaping to embellish its splendor, this skytop sanctuary is glamorous and highly dramatic, much like the legendary city it overlooks.
