Property Description
Live authentically. The Oread-a masterwork of architectural distinction, steeped in history and timeless elegance. This circa 1904 estate, once the visionary home of Henry Perky, inventor of shredded wheat, embodies a harmonious fusion of enduring period craftsmanship and bold, sophisticated reinvention. At its heart, a dramatic staircase ascends within an octagonal living hall, a breathtaking centerpiece that anchors the home's architectural splendor. Expansive verandas and porches extend the living space, inviting both grand entertaining and serene reflection. The estate unfolds with luxurious amenities: a classic pool, tennis court, and a collector's car barn. A guest house offers refined hospitality, while a 40' x 15' gourmet kitchen-appointed with European fixtures-is a stage for culinary artistry. The glamorous owner's suite is a private sanctuary of elegance and repose. A third-floor destination multi-room guest suite crowns the estate, offering soaring ceilings, breathtaking panoramic views, and a sense of retreat high above the landscape-an exquisite haven. Beneath the estate, an underground stone-and-plaster tunnel leads to a magnificent wine cellar, a hidden retreat where conversations linger into the night by invitation.
