Fancy a taste of Provence? Or, just something fancy? A new, $47.5 million listing will quench your thirst. While one might expect a home of this caliber to be found in the sweeping French countryside, this waterfront estate sits in Greenwich, only about 40 minutes from New York City. The sellers are retired chief investment officer of Blackstone, James Mossman, and his wife, Danielle Mossman.
Sat atop two acres on the water, the mansion was built by New Canaan-based firm Hobbs, Inc., designed by architect Mark Finlay with interiors done by G2 Design. Talk about teamwork making the dream work. Featuring the typical steep roofs, brickwork, and classic shutters seen on French villas, the home built in 2015 also holds beautifully done rich interiors with modern touches. The grounds are certainly captivating, while each room inside holds its own stately personality.
A contemporary meets traditional kitchen with bright cabinetry and gorgeous countertops is the perfect anchor for entertaining, while a stunning family room with lofted ceilings and loads of light is ideal for watching the seasons change. The 11,279-square-foot home also holds a stunning paneled library, a private office, as well as a beautiful custom wine cellar. Meanwhile, rolling lawns, several patios, and a 72-foot pool also encourage being by the waterside.
Across the home’s three stories are a total of six bedrooms, along with seven full bathrooms and four half bathrooms. Each is soaked in light, but the primary suite truly feels like an escape. Wooden French doors open onto a private terrace, and a bathroom with dual showers and vanities ensures enough space for relaxation. For $47.5 million, would you expect anything less?
Joseph Barbieri of Sotheby’s International Realty holds the high-flying listing.
