Wow House: Broadway Producers' Retreat In Westchester

The $13.2 million estate includes sculpture gardens and an amphitheater on its 18 acres.

WACCABUC, NY — Owned by Broadway producers Fran and Barry Weissler, this iconic Westchester estate is a perfect place to relax — and entertain.

Fran Weissler once called it "the house that 'Chicago' built" according to news reports. (The Weissler's revival of the musical is the second-longest running show in Broadway history.) Here's a look at their body of work, on Playbill.

The landscape is so well designed that the custom-built amphitheater, pool and sculpture gardens fit in seamlessly.
