The Lilly family crest remains prominently displayed on the side of the home. This stunning French Provincial-style residence boasts nearly 5,000 square feet of living space, 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms.

The home is gated, fenced, and it boasts a beautiful heated gunite pool with an automatic cover. The lush landscaping, complete with landscape lighting, lawn and flowerbed irrigation, and poolside speakers, makes it an entertainer's dream. The exterior combines classic architectural sophistication with an abundance of warm, inviting charm inside. Many original chandeliers hand-picked by the Lilly family, crown molding reminiscent of the Lilly home at Newfields, and fixtures sourced from New York designer Sheryl Wagner are still present throughout the house. The stately facade features distinctive mansard rooflines, elegant dormer windows, and wrought-iron balconies that enhance the character and curb appeal of the home. Upon stepping through the grand double entry doors, you will find a residence that promises both comfort and refinement, perfect for everyday living as well as upscale entertaining.
