Gone Glamorous

Indulge your sense of glamour at this incredibly revamped Colonial estate located in the Sky Meadow area of Purchase, N.Y.  Rye agent Wendy A. Alper proudly represents the listing, which is offered at $5,600,000.  Between its traditional exterior and luxuriously transformed interior, both residents and visitors of this exquisite Westchester County home will become entranced by its sophisticated, sleek atmosphere and undeniably glamorous lifestyle.  Everyone will feel like a movie-star while taking in the lavish surroundings of this designer residence that exudes the desirable allure of Hollywood.

Completely rebuilt in 1999, the traditional Colonial was once the carriage house to the neighboring property at 7 Sky Meadow Farm, which is also listed by our company with agent Maria Stilo. That historic 1927 residence was inspired by Britain’s finest English manors, boasting detailed architectural work, English gardens and numerous lavish amenities. Now a residence boasting its own luxurious appointments, 11 Sky Meadow Farm lies on nearly 3 acres of land, offering a Wagner pool with Pebble-Tec floor and spa, expansive bluestone patio, outdoor dining area with all-weather electric awning, outdoor lighting, and slate-floored pool house complete with its own high-ceilinged living room, gazebo-style dining room overlooking the pool, kitchen with custom cork ceiling and full bath with super-sized steam shower.

Beyond its timeless, traditional exterior, the 9,489 square-foot main residence displays a customized, modern design throughout its 15 rooms. The limestone-floored, two-story foyer includes an original fieldstone wall and double-sided stone fireplace with floor-to-ceiling windows that capture the home’s carriage house heritage. Additional standout spaces include a living room with original fieldstone fireplace, French limestone floors and Venetian plaster walls, and a Hollywood-worthy media room complete with a glass ceiling, drop-down full-sized screen, Crestron system and black granite wet bar, adding even more to the home’s already established movie-star appeal. The dining room has custom wax-finished walls and a silver leaf ceiling, while the oak-floored kitchen, updated in 2013, offers new appliances to each lucky resident. On the second floor, the step-down master suite has Thompson silk-paneled walls, a gas fireplace, built-in bed and master bath with floor-to-ceiling marble, oversized Jacuzzi tub and steam shower. In total the home has six bedrooms with seven full and two half baths.

“The residence has been completely gutted and done to the nines,” said Alper.  “A movie star would love this home, not for its size, but rather for its lavish, glamorous design and hip, cool style. I am proud to be representing a property that offers both great history and modern sophistication.”

Stay warm by one of the home’s three fireplaces, spend a peaceful afternoon in the home library, or venture out to breathe in the fresh air on the patio or screen room—the amenities here are endless. Additional features include staff quarters and a three-car garage.

With the humble beginnings of a carriage house, this property now offers lavish design on the inside, with a simple, strong country foundation, resulting in one unique place to call home.
