Built by renowned builder Al DeLuca and inspired by Carter’s Grove, this exceptional estate was completed over two years and received a Colonial Williamsburg Architectural Award in 1991.

The butler’s pantry includes custom cabinetry, a sink, and dishwasher. The chef-inspired kitchen is appointed with solid-cherry Rutt cabinetry, an oversized center island, stainless-steel appliances, double wall ovens, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator.
