Wow House: Westchester's Priciest House Price Goes Up

This spring this 98-acre property was listed for $29.5 million.

But the developers enlarged the pool and expanded, restored, and modernized the house, according to Stacy Knows--and now it’s listed for nearly $36 million.

There are 8 bedroom suites and 12 baths in its 22,431 sqft, but that’s just the bare bones. According to the Zillow.com listing, the house includes a grand ballroom and reception halls, formal and family dining rooms, sunroom and library. The butler’s pantry encompasses a secondary kitchen.

The house, on one of the highest ridges in Westchester, was once owned by showman Billy Rose; recently the property belonged to the Legionaries of Christ. It’s in New Castle, though the postal address is Mount Kisco.

The developers are Soder Real Estate Equities and Twin Oaks Construction. The property is listed with Melvin Caro, Nest Seekers International.
