Chateau Rochamore - a French Normandy stone manor of timeless grace - sits on over three park-like acres in North Stamford. Designed at the turn of the century by renowned New York City architect Gustave Steinbeck as a summer residence for himself and his family, this historic landmark offers nearly 6,000 square feet of elegant living space steeped in old-world craftsmanship and charm. From the moment you pass through the stone-pillared gates, the home's architectural details captivate: ornamental hand-carved gargoyles preside above the three-car garage, stately stone chimneys rise above the slate roof, and every element reflects the artistry of a bygone era. Step into the great hall, where a soaring three story beamed ceiling, dramatic stone fireplace, Juliet balcony, and French doors to a wraparound stone terrace set the tone for grand yet inviting living. The formal dining room, with its own beamed ceiling and stone fireplace, opens to the terrace - connecting the great hall - and leading to lush lawns and a Koi pond. Random width wide-plank oak floors flow throughout much of the home, while an indoor garden room with fountain - the perfect place for your morning coffee or yoga - brings the outdoors in. The main-floor primary suite provides comfort and privacy, and every corner of the home reveals distinctive architectural character. Less than an hour from Manhattan, Chateau Rochamore is an enchanting country retreat-a one-of-a-kind residence ready for its next chapter.
