Certainly had some spectacular interiors, including the music room and central court, but such a sad demise. Also was featured recently in 25Amagazine along with Inisfada. NYarch

A very original design, with its central court echoing that of Billing's NYC house.
Strict on the outside, lush on the inside.
Sort of looks like a mini Florham
