About this home
An Exceptional Private Retreat in Sewickley Heights
Set on ten breathtaking acres in the heart of Sewickley Heights, this extraordinary estate is one of the region’s most storied and significant properties. Originally constructed in 1935 as one of the first three Sewickley Heights estates, it has been exquisitely reimagined for modern living while preserving its timeless architectural character. Spanning more than 9,000 square feet, this home offers a rare combination of history, privacy, and luxury.
A winding drive through manicured grounds leads to the stately shingle-style residence, where broad porches and expansive stone terraces create an immediate sense of place. Inside, the home reveals beautifully scaled rooms, high ceilings, and architectural detailing of exceptional quality.
The formal living spaces are elegant and refined. A gracious entry hall opens to a handsome library with custom built-ins and large windows that flood the space with natural light, and a living room with multiple seating areas, crystal chandeliers, and a substantial limestone fireplace—ideal for both quiet evenings and sophisticated entertaining.
The dining room, with intricate moldings and an oversized bay window, sets the stage for memorable gatherings.
The custom-designed kitchen blends old-world craftsmanship with modern culinary luxury. At its heart is a magnificent La Cornue Château range, framed by a hand-plastered hood—a true centerpiece for those who love to cook. The kitchen opens seamlessly to a light-filled breakfast and family gathering room, where a fireplace, exposed beams, and walls of windows overlooking the gardens create a warm and welcoming everyday space.
A dramatic Great Room with soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed oak beams provides a spectacular venue for entertaining on a grand scale. This space is complemented by an impressive Billiards Room, anchored by a nine-and-a-half-foot-wide marble fireplace.
Outdoors, the estate offers the feel of a private resort. Expansive stone patios shaded by mature trees invite long summer evenings. A formal reflecting pool and landscaped gardens lend a timeless European elegance. A greenhouse and bocce court offer unique amenities rarely found in the region. The resort-sized swimming pool is framed by manicured hedges and multiple lounging terraces, creating an ideal setting for both private relaxation and elegant entertaining.
A six-car garage provides ample space for collectors or guests.
One of Sewickley Heights’ original estates, this property offers unmatched privacy, architectural significance, and modern livability—a legacy residence for those who value beauty, discretion, and enduring quality.
