    What's special

    This exceptional 150-year-old antique estate in Lower Weston has been thoughtfully and stylishly reimagined, seamlessly blending timeless historic character with the luxurious amenities of contemporary living. The main residence strikes a perfect balance between grand, flowing entertaining spaces and cozy, intimate nooks tailored for remote work or quiet relaxation. At the heart of the home, an epicurean chef's kitchen boasts dramatic 12-foot ceilings and premium finishes, serving as a magnificent centerpiece for both daily life and hosting. The primary bedroom suite is a true private sanctuary, complete with soaring cathedral ceilings, a spa-like bath, and two spacious walk-in closets. Beyond the main home, the expansive property stands out as a versatile estate compound, featuring three additional outbuildings. Among them is a massive, historic barn that has been cleverly converted to include a private one-bedroom apartment and an inspiring art studio-ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or creative endeavors. Perfectly situated within walking distance to Weston's award-winning schools, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, community, and unmatched charm. It is not just a house, but a complete lifestyle compound that must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated. Showings by appointment only.
