Property Description
Doan Hollow- Steeped in history and situated on 12+ rolling acres in prime Jericho Valley, this stunning home & property have been totally transformed and expanded with careful attention to detail, quality construction, impeccable taste, and use of the finest materials. Down a long, gated driveway, the main home on this exceptional estate offers 6 en-suite bedrooms including a private 1st floor main BR suite. The property includes a detached bank barn/garage with the potential for a 2- bedroom guest apartment, heated saltwater pool & spa, stone spring house, pond, extensive landscaping and hardscaping, and sweeping lawn and vistas. A fine architect, renowned builder, landscape architect & others have had their talented hands in the many improvements. The main house (Circa 1700s), completely reimagined in 2015, has exterior finish of stone, plaster and Hardie plank, a cedar roof, and Marvin windows & doors. While maintaining its vintage features, the home is finished in a sophisticated modern style with focus on enhancement of its natural features. It showcases original exposed stone and plaster over stone walls, newer ship lap style walls, rustic walnut & vintage pine board flooring, 6 fireplaces (one outdoors), and early beam & truss detailing. The entrance hallway immediately affords inviting vistas through a solarium/gallery to the outdoors. Oversized pocket doors recess, allowing indoor/outdoor living and access to the terrace with stone fireplace, and pool & spa beyond. A long gallery is flanked with lighted wine storage cupboards, leading to the main wine cellar, all climate controlled.

The thoughtfully planned kitchen is outfitted with two-tone cabinetry, and features exposed stone and a quartzite backsplash, and an oversized center island with double thick quartzite counters. Stainless appliances include a 6-burner Wolf range, Wolf wall oven, microwave & warming drawer, and a Subzero refrigerator & freezer. A separate 2nd floor suite includes a large family/media room, bedroom, full bath, & home gym -ideal for an in-law or home office suite; in the lower level, a finished room could easily become a home theater. The 1st floor main bedroom is its own destination, accessed through the original keeping room with walk-in fireplace, presently used as a home office. The main bedroom suite features a private balcony, walk-through dressing closet with laundry, and bath with oversized shower, designer tub, & vintage stone fireplace. Upstairs are 4 en-suite bedrooms, each with generous closets, and also a bonus 3rd floor hang-out room! One of three laundries is conveniently located nearby. Outside, entertaining is a breeze! An inviting al fresco covered loggia for dining is convenient to the outdoor kitchen with built-in gas grill and Green Egg charcoal grill, and steps away from the pool and spa. In addition, positioned away from the main house, a newer bank barn/garage (2013) offers 3 oversized, tall garage bays- great for multiple uses. On its upper floor, a potential 2-BR guest apartment is ready for finishing Marvin windows and French doors for access are in place, and plans are available.
