Beyond the classic covered bridge over the charming lake, magic awaits. The pièce de résistance of this 100+-acre sanctuary is its more than 6,500 sq. ft. manor house where marble, parquet, soaring ceilings and walls of glass abound. Amenities are plentiful here. Ponds, pastures, gardens, a 2-story guest house and handsome stable, temperature-controlled garages for over 250 cars, an Olympic-size pool, tennis facilities, and much more. Private and serene, yet convenient to downtown Raleigh. Magnificent!
