At its heart lies a magnificent manor house, meticulously appointed with four luxurious bedrooms, four full and four half baths, a main hall, elegant sitting and dining rooms, a light-filled garden room, a richly appointed library, an inviting family room, and a wine cellar for the true connoisseur. Seven fireplaces throughout the home provide warmth and ambiance, while a sleeping porch allows one to drift off amidst mountain breezes.

Outdoors, the estate unfolds into a series of masterfully designed garden rooms and leisure spaces. The renowned late Rosemary Verey—celebrated as one of the most influential English landscape designers of the 20th century—curated the gardens including cutting, herb, and vegetable gardens, which flourish alongside native flora.

Recreation and repose abound: A pool pavilion with a heated pool, full bath, and spa invites sunny afternoons, while a croquet court framed by formal boxwood hedges and antique stone niches recalls genteel traditions. From the stone roundel pavilion, gaze across state lines into the rolling hills of South Carolina. A two-story native stone overlook offers yet another sublime vantage point, and for special gatherings, a tiered gala amphitheater awaits beneath the stars. A boutique lake with its own lake house adds to the property’s charm, offering a serene retreat within a retreat. The estate is equipped with a private helipad and equipment buildings, including a property manager's office, ensuring every detail is impeccably maintained.
