DistinguishedRefinedEstablished. It is a rare pleasure to encounter such a stunning residence with timeless appeal. As one would expect of an estate of this caliber, there is a quiet dignity at first approach through the gated entrance, down a long winding drive, past specimen plantings and seamless gardens, to the handsome, 1939 stone and stucco manor home centered amidst 25 acres. Four years of extensive renovations and additions has provided every amenity for an inspired lifestyle.
No detail was spared in the design and construction. Flawlessly blending Old World craftsmanship with every modern convenience, the 13,000 square foot stone and plaster residence is replete with stylish elegance and the fine appointments including high ceilings, antique cherry hardwood floors and deep moldings.

The quality of this manor home is remarkable, with elaborate stone work and 18 inch walls. Classic in design and detail, the living spaces include elegant formal rooms, a handsome family room, a grand, two-story pub room with a second floor library, custom-designed theatre room with reclining leather chairs and bar, dual staircases, game room and a garden room with year round lap pool. The gracious interior spaces are detailed with spectacular millwork, exquisite finishes, custom moldings, barrel and coffered ceilings and seven fireplaces.
A genteel blend of grace and subdued elegance, without ever being intimidating, the layout creates an inviting environment perfect for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen is reminiscent of an English estate with a plethora of cabinets and granite work surfaces and every appliance required by a master chef. The master suite is an intimate retreat offering a separate sitting and dressing area, a fireplace, walk-in closets, a sumptuous master bath and a deck for sunbathing or stargazing all overlooking meadow, perennial gardens and hillside vistas beyond.
Beautifully appointed, warm and luxurious elements abound. All five bedrooms are en suite and are presented on a gracious scale, befitting the size of the home. A detached 2007 barn was designed to incorporate a batting or golfing cage and offers a full second floor guest or caretakers residence. Ten garages, a porte-cochere entrance and private, chauffer courtyard will delight the car enthusiast.
Numerous stone verandahs overlook two spectacular connecting pools with waterfalls, circular slide and spa - all surrounded by stone walls, perrenial gardens, two outdoor barbeques and four fire urns. Adjacent is a tennis court and a handsome, reproduction Bucks County stone cottage, designed as the pool house. Inside, a full kitchen, bath, lofted second floor and walk-in fireplace are presented in classic detail. A detached greenhouse and raised-bed garden area are positioned for southeast exposure. All of these abundant recreation facilities provide multiple options for exercise and outdoor enjoyment.
At each eye-catching turn, a host of rich hues and attractive accents blend together, creating an intriguing and mystical beauty. Ever changing scenes and costumes make Autumn and Winter at Belle Terre as stunning as Spring and Summer.
