A country road in the heart of the beautiful Pocono Mountains winds 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 leads to a stunning mountaintop lodge centered on 73 acres. This remarkable 13,000 sqft residence showcases the craftsmanship of an earlier age & the drama & conveniences of modern construction, all meticulously curated & maintained. The great room was designed to blend architectural character with cathedral ceiling, floor-to-ceiling fp, rosewood floors & walls of windows. A thoughtfully planned kitchen, with high-end appliances & amenities, opens to a patio & outdoor kitchen. For entertainment the lodge offers a media room, bar room, library, commercial gym & indoor saltwater pool & spa with heated floors, bar, fireplace & 2 bathrooms. The primary suite is a sanctuary with sitting area, fp, dressing area, marble bath & dual walk-in closets. A private balcony has views of distant mountains. There are 5 additional Brs, including 2 main-floor Br suites. An observation tower rises 40' to its pinnacle on the 4th level, the perfect place to be eye level with soaring hawks. A 1700s barn was reassembled on the property to provide garaging for 12+ cars & collections with heated floors & separate security system. The Pocono Mountains has been a beloved vacation destination for generations. Grocery stores, restaurants, resorts & ski slopes are a 15 minutes drive & NYC is 2 hours.
