Realtor.com
Industry titans seeking private retreats along New York’s iconic Roslyn Harbor could easily be seduced by this lavish, five-acre property in Roslyn, NY.
Located just 26 miles from Manhattan, the historic estate is listed for $7,985,000.
A sprawling main house, pool house, and several guest dwellings—for a total of 22 bedrooms and five buildings—are included in the sale.
The jaw-dropping property also comes with a greenhouse and tennis court.
High-society home
The house is something of a local historic monument, as it was built in 1930 by the renowned American architect, William Lawrence Bottomley. He was best known for the high-society homes he designed from 1915 to 1935 in Richmond, VA, with his wife, Helen Townsend.
Most recently, the estate—known as Lynrose—belonged to longtime music executive, Charles Koppelman, who died in 2022. His storied career involved work with artists such as Tracy Chapman, Barbra Streisand, Dolly Parton, The Lovin’ Spoonful, and Vanilla Ice. Koppelman’s son, Brian Koppelman, is the co-creator of the Showtime series, “Billions.”
Records show the home last changed hands in the 1970s.
Large-scale luxury
Within the walls of this Long Island mansion, the supersized sense of luxury is just as apparent as it is on the outside. With arched doorways in the main entrance and a crystal chandelier that illuminates the marble floors and finely crafted spiral staircase, the home is truly spectacular.
