Property Description
Belle Terre, a sprawling, forty acre Gilded Age estate in the quiet wilderness of the Catskill Mountains. The c1906 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 aficionados delight, under 3h to NYC and a world away.
