    What's special

    Gated downtown estateExpansive outdoor patiosGlass-walled executive officeFive bedroom-suitesUpstairs primary suiteSpa-like bathroomGracious great room
    This incredible gated downtown estate is like no other. Completely rebuilt in 2013 by Architect Nick Latham and Ziegler Construction, the iconic lodge-style home was originally built by Winston Lauder. Designed around a stunning interior courtyard with water features and expansive outdoor patios, the interior offers five bedroom-suites, a glass-walled executive office, and a gracious great room. Perfect for entertaining, the great room and dining area open to exterior patios with incredible landscaping, ponds and streams. The upstairs primary suite features a spa-like bathroom, an enormous dressing room, and its own sitting room. The lower level has a custom pull-out bed and sleeping area (with a full bath) adjacent to an enormous entertainment/game room. Lots of possibilities here. Additionally, there is a guest suite (with its own entrance) over the garage -- perfect for a caretaker, nanny or visiting friends. Built from white pine logs from Wyoming and Idaho and Oakley stack stone, the logs were hand adzed flat to create flat walls suitable for displaying artwork. The roof is solid vertical seam copper, and the entire home includes both radiant heat and air conditioning. Estimated replacement cost: $24 - $25 million. Don't miss the incredible pine tree on site, that over the holidays, rivals the NYC Rockefeller tree. It is covered in more than 10,000 Christmas lights. Leave your car in the garage, as downtown shopping and restaurants are just steps away. This is a rare and special property, unlike any in the Wood River Valley
