Circa 1906 Belle Terre Estate on Nearly 40 Acres Reduced in Stamford, New York

$2,385,000 | 1906 | 24,692 Sq. Ft. | 16 Beds | 14.5+ Baths | 38.32 Acres
10566 County Highway 18, Stamford, NY 13842

Belle Terre, a sprawling, forty-acre Gilded Age estate in the quiet wilderness of the Catskill Mountains. The c. 1906 Georgian manse was first built as a summer home by copper baron James McLean. The stunning 30,000 square foot home is complete with a private lake and bucolic, rolling hills-ideal for fox hunting and sport, which is what McLean had in mind when building it. Most recently used as a private residence for notable artist Hunt Slonem, this fantastic estate property is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history. Its storied past is as impressive as the architecture– Eleanor Roosevelt, a frequent guest and friend of McLean’s daughter, once hosted a party on this site for 6,000 guests. You’ll find many original details within the sprawling residence, moldings and floor boards, an elaborate stairwell & even the original elevator remains operable. An architecture aficionado’s delight, under 3 hours to NYC and a world away.
