The house features a one of a kind recessed arch "porte-cochere" entrance, which is French for "always leave the outside light on or a homeless person will sleep there." With almost six thousand square feet of space, this house sports four fireplaces AND an elevator - I was almost disappointed when I looked into the elevator and there wasn't another small fireplace inside. The formal dining and living rooms are "Great Gatsby"-level nice, and the kitchen is huge, with a glass-enclosed eat-in dining area that looks out onto the rolling backyard.
The master bath is incredibly glamorous; you could shoot a rap video in here. It's got more mirrors than suburban hotel's honeymoon suite (with none of the hidden cameras!), and twin vanities separated by a plush little bench, so whoever finishes getting ready first can sit there and offer super helpful unsolicited advice to the other. ("I'd never tell you what to wear, but that dress makes you look like an obese wet clown.") There's a stunning, presidential-quality office (with a fireplace), and au pair suite for the stunning eastern european you hired to take care of your kids. (I'll let you decide if "kids" in this context is a euphemism or not.) Out back is a flagstone patio, surrounded by greenery and wrought-iron fencing.
The top level is a huge entertaining area that opens onto an equally huge roof deck; I feel like the buyer of this house should have to sign a legally binding contract promisng to throw parties here. Not using such a fantastic space would be like buying the Mona Lisa and then locking it into a closet. It belongs to the world!
