The estate

One hallway joins the two houses

North Forest Manor is two stone and cedar-shingle buildings on a wooded lot in Forestburgh. The Main House has six bedrooms on two floors. The Pool House has six more, beside the indoor pool hall, a conference room and two wellness rooms. A common hallway runs between them, so the whole group can share one dinner table and still sleep in separate wings.

Inside there are three rooms built for a crowd: a restaurant-style lounge with a paneled bar, a private theater and a full arcade. Outside, a lawn, a gazebo with its own fireplace, a fire pit and an outdoor dining deck with a grill.

“A particular highlight was the dining space as it’s so rare to find houses with a large dining space to fit everyone - this house had three!”
