Hillandale, 262-Acre Historic Estate Lists for $75-Million

1233 Rock Rimmon Road, Stamford, Connecticut, United States, 06903

One of the largest estate properties in Stamford, Connecticut is making headlines after it’s been listed at $75-million. The historic estate, originally owned by the Sulzberger family of New York Times fame, sits on a sprawling 262-acre property which lands on the border of both New York and Connecticut. It was previously in the news in 2007/08 when owners Gilbert Haroche and wife Charlene listed the property at $95-million, the couple had previously purchased it in 1992 for just $6.7-million. During their lengthly ownership of the property, the Haroche’s expanded the original 10,000 square foot residence to the current 20,042 square foot plan we see today. Originally built in 1900, the approximately 20,000 square foot residence is an exquisite showplace for grand-scale entertaining, adorned with imported antique marble, limestone, onyx, mosaic tile and stained glass. Fireplaces serve as focal points of the elegantly paneled formal living and dining rooms, cloak room, library, conservatory and breakfast room. An old listing notes the property includes five and a half miles of roads, its own chapel, a scenic private lake, two barns, both indoor & outdoor pools, a pool house, and a teepee. The grounds also include a tennis court, greenhouse, and four guest/staff residences. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire one of the area’s largest and most significant estates. It is currently listed at $75-million with Sotheby’s International Realty.
