About High Point Estate on the Navesink River
In the heart of Monmouth County, New Jersey, nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and the Navesink River, and just one-hour outside of New York City, lies one of the East Coast’s most beautiful and affluent communities, the Navesink section of Middletown.
MASTERFULLY DESIGNED RESIDENCE
High Point Estate, rich in architectural symmetry, is perfectly positioned on fifteen+ professionally landscaped acres with breath taking vistas and includes seven hundred feet of Navesink river frontage.
This elegant French inspired chateau, magnificently designed by the renowned architect Robert A.M. Stern of New York City, features architectural details requiring exceptional materials, skill and craftsmanship.
The main house is an 18,000 square foot stucco and limestone home, detailed with a double wide entrance driveway, brick courtyards, French balconies, tall and wide mullioned windows, historic and wrought iron ornate accents, arched alcove windows, slate roofs, tall chimneys and copper gutters. Enter the main house through solid wood double doors and vestibule to an open two story elegant foyer with limestone flooring, exquisite architectural details and a custom circular staircase detailed with a hand-forged wrought iron banister.
The interior was masterly painted by internationally acclaimed Pierre Finkelstein, his realistic wood graining, intricate glazing, 18th and 19th-century patinas, gilding, handmade plaster finishes, ornamentation, custom-cut stenciling and architectural trompe l’oeil is detailed throughout the home. The first and second-floor foyers are intricately hand-painted Venetian plaster in a design that appears textured but smooth to the touch.
SUMPTOUS LIVING SPACES
The fifty-foot living room, with twelve-foot ceilings, a grand fireplace, intricately painted woodwork, bookshelves and parquet flooring is also home to a custom designed, one-of-a-kind, state-of-the-art Movie Theater. Just next to the living room, enter the elegant river view bar which is designed in exquisite Pierre hand painted carved wood details with a large French mirror reflecting the river. The dining room was designed for a round dining table of eighteen, thus putting everyone at the head of the table creating the perfect riverfront dining experience.
The kitchen features a handcrafted brick barreled ceiling with hand-painted beams, wide-planked wood floors and honed alabaster countertops with a large island and state-of-the-art kitchen amenities and a breakfast room that captures the river views.
A warm and calming family room with beamed ceilings, built-ins, wood planked floors and a fireplace that doubles as an outdoor fireplace with a pergola and seating area to view the sailboats on the river as they pass by.
The second floor consists of two wings; the family wing and the guest or staff quarters. The family wing consists of four en-suite bedrooms, including the master suite. The master suite has a balcony with panoramic views overlooking the river, a master bath with a curved steam shower and a free standing soaking tub overlooking the river with alabaster and marble accents.
