Massive estate with ‘big log energy’ is every lumberjack’s dream. Check it out
An elegant “Colorado lodge-style” estate that redefines comfort has landed on the real estate market in Millbrook, New York, for $11.9 million.
The five-bedroom, seven-bathroom residence is a combination of refinement and strength in one enchanted package and sits on 75-plus upstate acres with plenty of stupendous views — both inside and out.
“A gated entrance leads to this unique, 11,500-square-foot home constructed of standing dead timber from the west and immense stone from Pennsylvania,” the listing on Zillow.com says.
“The colossal logs, which measure up to 41 inches in diameter, were cut and laid in place out west before being deconstructed and transported to its current location. The open floor plan lends itself to grand entertaining while offering enough niche areas to cozy-up in.”
The logs give the estate a rugged appeal while sophistication flows through the decor. High-end features inside the unique home include:
Full-size pub
Huge great room
Chef’s kitchen
Chess room
Private porches in each bedroom
2,700-square-foot deck
Outdoor fireplace
Hot tub
Game room
Recording studio
Indoor shooting range
“This property also includes a barn and three ancillary residences perfect for overflow of guests, rental properties, or a caretaker,” the listing says.
The estate was featured on Bloomberg reporter Steven Dennis’ popular Friday Night Zillow segment on Twitter.
“Big log energy,” he tweeted along with the home’s listing on Zillow.
“I’ve had #lottoacres fantasies like every other sensible person. And a rustic log place may have entered the chat!” one person said.
Millbrook is about 85 miles north of New York City.
