Forest Gate, Estate of the Day
Filed under: Estates
Today's home, a newer build in Flat Rock, North Carolina is fascinating just for how many different places were sourced to create it. This over 10,000 square foot home includes a granite cobblestone driveway that came from the streets of Chicago, fireplace beams from farms in the Midwest and stone floors from Burgundy, France, The home has mountain views and sits at an elevation of 2,800 feet. The home is a faux-Tuscan meets Western pastiche with the latest details including a security system with motion detectors and Lutron/Crestron lighting control systems. The five-bedroom home is on 58 acres that include barns with horse stalls, a pond and four separate homes for caretakers and trainers. This home is listed at $9.85 million. After the jump, this is the first home I have seen where the television is actually built into the stone fireplace.
