Immerse yourself in the grandeur of luxury residential living at Great Elm, the unparalleled 19th century Georgian colonial that was once the home of author and influential political commentator, William F. Buckley Jr. Nestled in the heart of Sharon, CT, this prestigious property is a rare opportunity to acquire 8,072 sqft., roughly half of the original Buckley estate. Steeped in historical significance and architectural elegance, the living space has been extensively renovated combining old world charm with modern amenities. The impeccable design choices are thoughtfully reflected throughout from the art deco bathrooms to the William Morris wallpaper. Every room exudes sophistication and meticulous care. The main level primary bedroom suite and gracious sitting rooms, each with gorgeous detail and wood burning fireplaces, open to the dramatic three-story Atrium, a year-round haven reminiscent of New Orleans. Upstairs are 7 beautifully appointed ensuite bedrooms, one of which is used as a gym; another as an office. This property is the anchor of a community of homes joined by an Association that manages the 50 magnificent, park-like acres and amenities, including a heated, Gunite pool, pool house, tennis and paddle/pickle courts. It's a chance to own a piece of U.S. history while enjoying care-free living. Near Hotchkiss, Salisbury, Indian Mountain and Millbrook Schools. Only 2 hours to NYC.

Please ask for a list of multiple upgrades from a major renovation in 2013 from mechanical to structural to cosmetic.
