This is a unique home of the highest caliber, set on two idyllic, scenic acres of the former Tiffany Estate, and near to the President Theodore Roosevelt sanctuary. A special location amidst the trees and rolling hills of Oyster Bay Cove. A special, splendid home designed by the same architect, Edward Durrell Stone, who designed the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, among other masterpieces.
A private drive leads to a circular courtyard and a brick walkway to a custom made mahogany double door entree-way to this Mid-Century Modern home with more than a flair of Stone’s famous international styling.
