About This Home

A truly irreplaceable offering on Todt Hill, this extraordinary all-brick custom estate represents a level of privacy, scale, and grandeur that is becoming nearly impossible to find. Privately tucked behind an elegant electric-gated entrance, a long winding driveway leads through nearly an acre of impeccably manicured grounds to a breathtaking mansion, where a stately fountain welcomes you to one of Staten Island's most distinguished residences. Set on almost a full acre, this remarkable estate offers approximately 7,800 square feet of luxurious living across three expansive levels, surrounded by extraordinary front and rear grounds that create the feeling of a private country estate while remaining just minutes from every convenience. The grand formal foyer introduces interiors defined by timeless architecture and exceptional craftsmanship. The main level features a newly renovated neoclassical chef's kitchen appointed with Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, exquisite marble flooring, and custom millwork throughout. Designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the home also offers a gracious living room, formal dining room, dramatic family room with soaring cathedral ceilings and a marble fireplace, a private library, a bedroom suite, powder room, an expansive sunroom overlooking the estate-like backyard, and an attached two-car garage. The second level is highlighted by a magnificent primary suite featuring its own fireplace, a spa-inspired marble bath, two oversized walk-in closets, and a private retreat designed for ultimate comfort. Two additional spacious bedrooms and a beautifully appointed full bath complete this level. The third floor presents an expansive sky parlor, offering endless possibilities as a media lounge, fitness studio, executive office, artist's loft, or additional bedrooms. Adding to the uniqueness of this estate is a separate one-bedroom guest house, ideal for extended family, guests, live-in staff, or a private home office. Outside is where this property truly becomes one of Todt Hill's rarest offerings. The sprawling, park-like grounds provide exceptional privacy with expansive lawns in both the front and rear of the property—an increasingly rare luxury in today's market. The custom-designed landscape surrounds a sparkling heated in-ground pool and creates an unforgettable setting for elegant entertaining, weddings, celebrations, or simply enjoying the tranquility of your own private retreat. Offering the prestige of a gated entrance, an impressive approach, unmatched outdoor space, and the privacy of a true estate, this is a property that rarely becomes available and is nearly impossible to replicate on Todt Hill today.
