About this home
Live authentically. The Oread—a masterwork of architectural distinction, steeped in history and timeless elegance. This circa 1904 estate, once the visionary home of Henry Perky, inventor of shredded wheat, embodies a harmonious fusion of enduring period craftsmanship and bold, sophisticated reinvention.
At its heart, a dramatic staircase ascends within an octagonal living hall, a breathtaking centerpiece that anchors the home’s architectural splendor. Expansive verandas and porches extend the living space, inviting both grand entertaining and serene reflection. The estate unfolds with luxurious amenities: a classic pool, tennis court, and a collector’s car barn. A guest house offers refined hospitality, while a 40' x 15' gourmet kitchen—appointed with European fixtures—is a stage for culinary artistry. The glamorous owner’s suite is a private sanctuary of elegance and repose. A third-floor destination multi-room guest suite crowns the estate, offering soaring ceilings, breathtaking panoramic views, and a sense of retreat high above the landscape—an exquisite haven. Beneath the estate, an underground stone-and-plaster tunnel leads to a magnificent wine cellar, a hidden retreat where conversations linger into the night by invitation. The property’s private speakeasy, seamlessly connected to a gracious dining room, sets the scene for intimate gatherings and spirited celebrations. Set upon 19.27 acres of rolling landscape, this estate welcomes your horses, visions, and aspirations. Heirloom apple trees, unfettered privacy, and breathtaking panoramas create an atmosphere of unparalleled tranquility. A rare and soulful property, The Oread is more than an estate—it is a legacy, an experience, and an extraordinary opportunity to script the next chapter of your life. The Oread has 2 heated and cooled buildings that house up to 12 cars. Proximate to the NCR and The Milton Inn. Internet access - Comcast Dedicated Fiber. Cultivate your existence.
