Following a meticulous 24-month restoration, this magnificent 7+-acre estate has been breathtakingly reborn, expanding to 10,095 square feet of luxurious living space that brilliantly honors its historic soul while embracing state-of-the-art 21st-century sophistication. Envisioned by renowned "jazz-age" architect Albert Ely Ives, celebrated for his work on the Winterthur Museum and Gibraltar manse, Chevannes was directly inspired by the original du Pont French homestead, Bois-des-Fosses. Ives crafted a masterclass in French provincial grandeur featuring stucco over solid masonry, limestone quoined corners, and a unique circular floor plan. Construction was originally overseen by H. Rodney Sharp to guarantee the era's highest standards. To ensure absolute authenticity, chestnut seeds were brought directly from the French ancestral estate to create a formal alle on the groundsa breathtaking feature that endures today alongside a meticulously executed walled rose garden.
