FON FEATURED HOMES
Every aspect of Linden Estate has been beautifully preserved and authentic original details such as a red-tile gambrel roof, original millwork and eight wood-burning fireplaces are found throughout. Originally designed circa 1910, the home spans 18,000+ square feet on three floors, including eight bedrooms, eight full baths and three half baths, plus separate staff quarters for a total of 12 bedrooms and 12-1/2 baths.
Situated on 10 +/- acres on Ox Pasture Road, the home is located in the heart of the estate section and is quite private and secure. Every detail is well-conceptualized, thanks to the home’s original architect Grosvenor Atterbury, and the Frederick Law Olmsted park-like landscape design adds splendor to the estate, which is named after the linden trees that shade the premises.
Upon entering the Linden Estate, one arrives in a grand hall which leads into a massive living room with coffered ceilings and glass doors offering expansive exterior views. It’s a short walk into
the library, featuring oak walls lined in leather and hand-carved, ornamental ceilings. A cascading spiral staircase then leads to the upstairs sleeping area, sitting room, walk-in closet and master bathroom complete with mosaic tiles, a fireplace and a tub. The French kitchen was custom built on site and its special touches include a hand-made French La Cornue stove, a farmhouse sink, large island, butler’s pantry and exposed wood beams.
The estate’s grounds feature a 60‘ x 20‘ outdoor and indoor pool, spa, gym, grass tennis court, paddle court, two pavilions with full kitchens, arbors, fountain, carriage house with connecting greenhouse and an equipment house, as well as two detached four-car garages.
