What took so long for such a beautiful home?
It appears price could have been the issue. In 2015, the asking price for the home was $13 million. However, by 2019, the price got knocked down to $6.8 million. Still, the 4-acre estate home didn’t snag a buyer until 2020. Inside the property includes eight bedrooms, 10 full bathrooms and tons of amenities including but not exclusive to a gym, sauna and gorgeous in-ground pool.
This home was definitely worth the purchase for the lucky buyer. Let’s take a peak inside...

A Luxurious Gate Entrance
That’s a longgg driveway.
What an Entrance
Just beautiful. Modern architecture is cute but this screams “home.”
Charming Accents
Very much fairytale castle vibes.
Plenty of Garage Space
How many cars do you think she had in there? I’m sure there’s a whole apartment worth of space inside.
Front Doors
That deep brown chestnut is sooo sexy.
First Look Inside
The pillars, the floors, the everything!
Tasteful Centerpiece
You need something to catch a guest’s eye upon their first walk in.
Staircase Details
Older designs have a way of adding a little something to every piece of a home.
Living Space
This is the living space in the home that stays decorated and untouched unless for special occasions.
Living Room
The real entertainment must happen in here. Why have one living room when you can have two?
Marble Fireplace
Guests can get warmth from either side of this two-sided fireplace.
Bar Counter
Personally, everyone should have a lil sum like this in their house.
Insane Office
If you need to get work done or film a scene from “The Godfather,” this is the room to do it.
Dining Area
A perfect space for a nice long dining table.
Kitchen
The wooden cabinets and black countertops give a warm, cozy atmosphere.
Lovely Stove Top
Who wouldn’t want to cook on that all day?
Bedroom Lounge
A fireplace in your bedroom? This cozy lounge is a nice place to chill when you don’t want to be around people but also not in bed.
Master Bedroom
A high-ceiling bedroom? Yes, please.
Bedroom Espresso Machine
Need I say more? Coffee drinkers, we all need this in our rooms.
Master Bathroom
That old style tub and vanity is something out of a movie.
Powder Room
The black cabinets give this room a little bit of a goth feel, no?
Shower Stall
I’d be in here all day. However, the beige tile is a little blah.
Entertainment Room
Missed opportunity to put a pool table in here.
Wine Cellar
If you wine cellar doesn’t look like this, what are you doing?
Gym
Would I bump into a mirror by accident? Why, yes. Better that than a Planet Fitness membership.
Basketball Court
Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better... a whole basketball court INSIDE the house.
Sauna
Having a sauna in your own home is peak luxury. Why ever leave?
Movie Theater
Is it really a mansion without a movie theater? The popcorn machine is just an adorable feature.
Enchanting Pool Entrance
The cobblestone pillars are *chefs kiss*
Backyard
Look at all that extra grass to run in? This is what four acres looks like.
In-Ground Pool
Summertime doesn’t hit the same without a pool. Imagine this space decked out with the cozy chairs and a lil cabana. Then, we’re in business.
