Modern Construction & Move-in Ready Condition: Built in 2009, the estate combines historical grandeur with contemporary comfort, is meticulously designed, and presented in move-in ready condition.

Cons

Limited Buyer Pool: The ultra-luxury price point of $13.8 million significantly narrows the potential buyer demographic, potentially leading to a longer market time.
Specific Architectural Style: While a strength for some, the distinct English Regency-style may not appeal to all luxury buyers who prefer more contemporary or different traditional aesthetics, limiting broader market appeal.
High Ongoing Maintenance Costs: The extensive size of the estate (9,650 sqft), large lot, elaborate landscaping, pool, spa, and sophisticated systems will incur substantial ongoing maintenance expenses for a new owner.
