Linwood rests on 12.62 sprawling acres of pristine lakefront property in the beautiful gated community of magnificent, multi-acre estates called Conyers Farm. This enthralling Neo-Classic estate was built with the preservationist in mind with admiration and innate respect for the natural splendor of the land and its surrounding environs. Visual brilliance is evident throughout, most notably in the tiered gardens, stone embankments and myriad of footpaths. A trellised pool house and four season solarium offer striking vistas of the sparkling, unspoiled waters of Lake Converse making this an ideal setting for gracious year-round entertaining. This home was recently featured as a New York Post Dream Home.





Completed in 1993, the entire property emanates a majestic presence while maintaining the charm and appeal of a country lakefront home. Each finely crafted detail was hand selected under the guidance of noted New York designer, Kenneth Alpert, utilizing inspirations from California. Built by world renowned New York architect and planner, Robert Lamb Hart, the estate radiates a unique individuality in both the spectacular grounds, carved out of virgin woodlands, and the palatial 12,560 square foot manse, offering seven sublime bedrooms, seven luxury full baths and four designer half baths.













Welcoming guests with a large circular courtyard and massive front portico, the residence opens through double doors into the enthralling two story foyer with a sweeping circular staircase. The inlaid limestone and wood floors are illuminated by a soaring California inspired window above the entry. Its design and height are echoed in the large windows seen throughout the home, many overlooking the lake. An elegant gallery running perpendicular to the foyer provides access to most of the first floor, which includes a ballroom-sized sunken living room with coffered ceiling, limestone fireplace and over mantel and lake views, an imposing formal dining room with a magnificent cove-lit recessed ceiling embellished with a hand-painted mural. Central to the floor plan, a stunning two-story library with wet bar provides a perfect spot for a game of cards and flows from the living room into the Great Room. Aptly named, the two-story Great Room is flooded with sunlight through a soaring bay window that showcases gleaming hardwood floors and a second floor balcony.

I'll take it, where do I sign?

love the lake front view. The woods and just the layout. I wish I had the extra cash to shell out for this!

Why do people need so many seating places in 1 house?
