A Monticello icon with presence, pedigree, and scale. The Historic Moore Mansion is a Tudor Revival masterpiece built in 1924, offering 24 rooms, over 9,000 square feet, and approximately three acres of lawns and forested grounds packed with resort-level amenities. The arrival is unforgettable, anchored by an imposing front limestone architrave. Step inside to a spectacular foyer with a massive crystal chandelier, French tapestries, and an imposing wrought-iron staircase. Ornately decorated vaulted ceilings, in-laid walnut floors, romantic alcoves, and window seats define the home's character. Four imported Italian marble fireplaces deliver historic elegance with striking visual impact. Entertain in style with a handsome billiard room, cozy library, elegant music room, and a vaulted dining room made for grand celebrations. A state of the art kitchen elevates everyday living with modern performance and design. The home features seven bedrooms, four full baths, and two additional half-baths, plus a vast attic ideal for storage, a studio, or a whimsical playroom. Outside, the estate lives like a private country club. Enjoy a sunken maze, large in-ground swimming pool, outdoor Jacuzzi in a private walled courtyard, a croquet green, and extensive stone patios and garden walkways, with even more remarkable features throughout the grounds. The Moore Mansion is a rare opportunity to call a piece of Monticello history home.
