Laurel Hill | Mill Neck, New York Offered by Christie’s International Real Estate
Serene and private, and with wonderful views of Oyster Bay Harbor, Laurel Hill is one of the last remaining great estates on the Long Island Gold Coast
Commanding 57 serene and private wooded acres with sweeping hilltop views of Oyster Bay is Laurel Hill, one of Long Island’s rarest remaining Gold Coast estates. Located in the prestigious North Shore enclave of Mill Neck, Laurel Hill is a romantic estate anchored by a majestic Tudor-style mansion situated amongst its magnificent grounds.
THE MANOR HOUSE Boasting excellent provenance and once the home of Abby Rockefeller Mauzé, the manor house, originally constructed in 1928, is a fine example of Tudorstyle architecture. Encompassing 14,252 square feet of living space, the main entrance is a reception vestibule looking beyond to a walled courtyard garden through French doors. Further along, visitors are greeted by an airy foyer with a staircase to the second level. Ideal for entertaining, the formal dining room easily seats 20 and most reception rooms, like the elegant sunken living salon, open to flagstone patios. The first-floor library is a retreat paneled in mahogany. Capable of handling the largest of events, the kitchen comes with commercial-grade appliances, a breakfast room, staff lounge, and separate catering kitchen. There are seven wood-burning fireplaces and its elegant interiors are lit by large Palladian windows. The second level houses five bedroom suites, a music room, as well as a four-bedroom staff wing.
ADDITIONAL STRUCTURES AND AMENITIES Positioned on the brick pool deck is a mid-century modern pool house measuring 1,904 square feet. This pavilion styled retreat offers a relaxing atmosphere when enjoying the estate’s oversized gunite pool. Additional outbuildings include a three-bedroom guest house, a carriage house with a five-car garage and caretaker’s apartment above, a greenhouse, and a second four-car garage. For sports and recreation, the estate offers a tennis and sport court and two miles of walking trails surrounding the perimeter of the property.
