Live In Long Island’s Own Palace Of Versailles For Just $60M

Welcome to Maison des Jardins, a Long Island mansion that was inspired by the Palace of Versailles in France. The Gold Coast estate recently hit the market on Thursday for $60,000,000.

Every inch of the home, located in Old Brookville, was built in the style of 17th century French Classicism by architects Michael J. Wallin and Douglas R. Schneider. It was the owner’s lifelong dream to bring this home to life, according to Douglas Elliman Real Estate.

This listing describes the intricate details of the eight-acre estate: “Massive twenty-two foot high iron gates flanked by limestone piers open to an allée of flowering pear trees, through which the driveway leads. The approach offers a glimpse here and there of the chimneys and cupola of the château. As anticipation builds and the pear allée fades, the eight-acre property opens up to reveal a cobble lined forecourt.”

The palace is 160 feet long and reaches a height of 50 feet, with chimneys topping to 60 feet.

Despite the 17th century design and decor, Maison des Jardins is located near major highways and roadways, with nearby golf clubs, premiere shopping and top restaurants.

The home comes fully furnished and offers amenities such as eight bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, a garden, swimming pool, outbuildings, staff accommodations, private parking garage and more. Get a visual tour of Maison des Jardins here.

The property is listed by Douglas Elliman’s Eloise Halpern and Patricia Bischoff.
