The home
About this home
A rare opportunity awaits at this exceptional Dorset Hollow estate, privately situated at the end of exclusive Marcia Lane. Perched high on Dorset Mountain across 16.74 acres, the property captures breathtaking long-range views of Owls Head, Equinox Mountain, and beyond. Built in 2005 by renowned craftspeople, this 7,451-square-foot, five-bedroom, seven-bath estate has undergone a multimillion-dollar renovation, creating an updated, turnkey retreat. Improvements include a new kitchen addition with locally sourced Danby marble and high-end cabinetry, a remodeled primary suite, and comprehensive renovations to the interior, exterior, and grounds. The home offers seamless indoor-outdoor living, flowing onto a wraparound porch and stone patio with an outdoor kitchen. Stone walkways lead to a large lap pool with a diving rock, a ball field, manicured gardens, wildflower meadows, an apple orchard, and an English garden with a fountain and marble bench. Year-round amenities include three wood-burning fireplaces, multiple gathering rooms, a gym, a theater with surround sound and a large wood-burning fireplace, and a hot tub with spectacular views. Speakers serve the first floor, porch, and pool area. The impressive Bensonwood timber-frame barn features an indoor pickleball court and basketball and a full game room. A separate heated equipment barn with power and internet offers space for equipment storage, a woodworking shop, or other uses. Smart-home upgrades include indoor and outdoor lighting controls, thermostats, and a security system with cameras. Wired and wireless internet extends throughout the property, and a full-estate 80 kW generator provides added reliability. Refined finishes include hand-nailed wide-plank pine floors, crown molding, wainscoting, slate, marble, cherry wood, handmade wrought iron, and locally sourced materials. The grand primary suite showcases dramatic Bensonwood timber framing, creating a warm private retreat.
