About the Listing DOREYC - 3158687

Just minutes from major commuter interstates, a country road in the heart of the beautiful Pocono Mountains winds through lush countryside to a gate that doesn’t offer even a hint of what is found beyond. If you are lucky enough to be granted entrance, the drive sweeps past boulders and around bends to a stunning mountaintop lodge centered on 73 acres, a backdrop befitting a James Bond movie. Inspired by the beauty and magnitude of its surroundings this remarkable 13,000 square foot residence showcases all the fine materials and craftsmanship of an earlier age coupled with the drama, efficiency and conveniences of modern construction, all finely curated and meticulously maintained. Rare and unusual design elements welcome you to the lodge with an open dining room that will amply accommodate large gatherings and is appointed with Ironwood trees, natural flagstone floor and wall of windows. The voluminous great room was designed with extreme care to blend its strong architectural character and exceptional detailing into a dramatic and comfortable space punctuated by its cathedral ceiling, floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, African rosewood floors and walls of windows to embrace the sun in the winter and the sun-dappled views in the summer. A thoughtfully planned kitchen, with high-end appliances and amenities to please the most discerning of cooks, opens to a large patio with outdoor kitchen, inviting al fresco dining. There should be no need to leave the compound for entertainment. The lodge offers an acoustically engineered media room, sunken bar room with fully outfitted marble bar, library and a commercial gym. The star of the recreation options is the indoor saltwater pool and spa complete with desert air system. Here heated flagstone floors and walls of glass doors frame the pool and invite one to swim while the snow flies. Refreshments will be served from the poolside bar and the unique open hearth propane fireplace will enhance the ambiance. Dual bathrooms are conveniently located steps away. The second floor primary suite is a sanctuary that draws you through glass doors onto the private balcony to take in the distant mountains with no signs of civilization in view. Here every amenity is elegantly embraced in the adjacent sitting area with fireplace, bedroom area with cathedral ceilings and retractable projection screen. The ensuite bath offers marble steam shower, whirlpool tub and marble vanity. Dual closets and a dressing area with handsome built-ins will amply accommodate your wardrobe. In addition to the primary suite five additional bedrooms, including two main-floor bedroom suites, will offer sanctuary to friends and family. An observation tower rises 40 ft above the main floor to its pinnacle on the fourth level, the perfect place to leave the world behind, savor the quiet and be eye level with soaring hawks and rainbows cresting the mountain. Comfort is ensured by a commercial whole-property generator, intricate heating and cooling systems and high-tech security system. A historic c.1700s barn was carefully disassembled from its original location and reassembled on the property to provide garaging for 12+ cars and collections. Heated floors, insulated walls and ceilings, remote controlled sliding doors, washer and dryer and separate security system provides enviable workspace. The Pocono Mountains with its four seasons of natural beauty, clear lakes and rivers, luxurious resorts and colorful festivals, has been a beloved vacation destination for generations. When you need to leave this extraordinary oasis you will be delighted to know that grocery stores, restaurants, resorts and ski slopes are a hassle-free 15 minutes drive. New York City is a world away, but can be easily accessed in two hours via Interstate Route 80.
