Designed by noted New York architect Alan Wanzenberg and built on a 200 acre equestrian estate in 1991, this fabulous 9,535 square foot residence was recently updated by designer Jed Johnson. It recently sold for $5.2 million according to Sotheby’s International Realty. A recent listing noted, “Under the eye of the current owner, the west wing of the main house including the kitchen, family, and dining rooms has been reconfigured and completely renovated and updated to permit a more open flow to the rest of the expansive first floor entertaining spaces.” The floor plan includes an impressive two-storey wood-panelled library with towering bay window and fireplace, seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a 3,200 bottle wine cellar, updated paint and new lighting throughout. The residence presides over a pond-like, heated swimming pool surrounded by bluestone terraces.

Just down the winding drive lined by an allé of maples, you’ll find one of the most expansive equestrian facilities in New England. The 20,000 square foot, steel-framed complex is divided into three component areas including 12 box stalls, numerous tack rooms and shop and office, a beautifully equipped viewing lounge with barn manager’s three bedroom apartment and the main riding arena. The arena has been converted to an indoor soft surface tennis court but could easily be returned to its former equestrian use. Acres of open pasture and hayfields, a spring fed pond, improved roads and trails and multiple additional smaller outbuildings including an alpaca barn, equipment barn and wood crib add to both the recreational and functional aspects of the property. Stonehill Farm had been on the market for $5.25 million with Richard Higgerson of Sotheby’s International Realty.
