Marketing remarks:

Designed by the prestigious firm of Marston & Van Pelt with Palladianism in mind, Arden Villa is one of those grand estates all at once infamous & private—cloistered behind massive gates, which opened to a 100-yard tree-lined driveway. And away from prying eyes, the main residence offers grand entertainment rooms, a lavish Master suite, 11 lavatories, game rooms, a wine cellar, office spaces & possibilities for more sleeping quarters/entertainment spaces.

The extensive grounds include vast manicured gardens, lily ponds, tennis court, swimming pools & tranquil spaces. The recent addition of a secondary residence located at 1193 Arden, has also created the opportunity for a truly private compound.

Arden Villa is known as the ”Dynasty Mansion.” It is home to the infamous Lilly Pond, where Krystle & Alexis played out one of their classic catfights.

Enduring design, charming upgrades & permanent pedigree make this Palladian Masterpiece the perfect backdrop for a Royal Lifestyle with Olympian Calm.
