Property Description
‘Haut Bois’ is a refined brick-and-stucco French chateau nestled in the heart of Brookville, New York. Inspired by the Louis XIV hunting lodge that later became the Palace of Versailles, this extraordinary 18-room estate is steeped in history, elegance, and timeless beauty. Originally built in 1916 by renowned architect Ogden Codman Jr. and meticulously restored in the late 20th century, this one-of-a-kind masterpiece sits at the end of a private road on eight pristine acres. Beyond its wrought-iron gates, a long, tree-lined stone driveway leads to the stately residence, where every detail reflects exceptional craftsmanship and sophistication - from antique stone fireplace mantels and hand-painted wallpaper to crystal chandeliers and bespoke finishes throughout. A grand entrance hall with a sweeping marble staircase welcomes you to the main level. The formal living and dining rooms, each adorned with French doors, open seamlessly to the outdoor entertaining terraces and overlook the breathtaking formal gardens. The chef’s eat-in kitchen features a spacious center island, custom cabinetry, a La Cornue range with matching hood, premium appliances, and granite countertops. Completing the main level are a wet bar, library, den, powder room, and a private guest bedroom with an en-suite bath. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite offers separate dressing rooms, multiple walk-in closets, and two exquisite marble bathrooms. Three additional generously sized bedrooms, two full baths, and elevator access complete the upper level. The lower level is thoughtfully designed for both recreation and comfort, featuring separate guest quarters, a billiards room, playroom, laundry room, fitness area, spa, and sauna. The basement level includes abundant storage, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, and access to the attached four-car garage. Originally landscaped by famed French architect Jacques Greber, the grounds are nothing short of spectacular. Highlights include a stunning step-down courtyard, irrigated vegetable garden, gated tennis court, in-ground pool with pool house, chipping and putting green, and an outdoor fireplace and grilling area. Cloaked in ivy and grandeur, and tucked away along Long Island’s storied Gold Coast, ‘Haut Bois’ stands as one of the last remaining architectural treasures of its era.
