It is rare to find a newer home that captures the magic of the past, but this custom-built chateau does exactly that. Nestled on over 68 acres of beautiful rolling hills, it blends modern living with incredible history. The owners gathered old, salvaged materials and antique pieces from all over the world to build it. You will find real French limestone floors and historic antique doors brought over from Morocco and Germany.
The true heart of this home is the kitchen and the incredible spaces made for sharing good times. The kitchen is a dream, featuring a real wood-fired pizza oven, a classic La Cornue range, and beautiful hammered copper sinks. If you love collecting wine, the home features an amazing wine room that holds 1,000 bottles. You can grab a bottle and head up to the rooftop balcony to look at the stars. Every corner of this house shows a deep love for old-world style. When you walk in, you are greeted by a massive, stunning half-moon window. The home features round turret rooms with authentic French plaster walls and high, domed ceilings. There is even a gorgeous spiral staircase with intricate ironwork, alongside a sleek glass elevator that connects the floors beautifully.
The main bedrooms feel like private sanctuaries. One suite features cozy, reclaimed wood ceiling beams, an antique fireplace, and a beautiful bathtub tucked under a domed ceiling. Your guests will never want to leave either. The property includes a huge, attached four-bedroom guest house complete with its own kitchen, library, media room, and a wide veranda looking out over the green pastures. Outside, the property feels like a private park just 30 minutes from downtown Portland. The huge four-bay garage easily opens up into a beautiful courtyard to host large parties. In fact, the property already has an official permit to host weddings and big events. With so much flat, gorgeous land, you could easily start your own vineyard, run a working farm, or just enjoy the ultimate private country estate.
