Remarkably, 78 Khakum Wood has been treasured by only 2 owners. Built in 1906, this was the first structure in the private community envisioned by Newton Phelps Stokes in collaboration with the esteemed landscape firm of Olmstead Brothers. Sited on 2.95 acres , this was the original gate house for the Stokes estate serving as the stables, the kennels and staff living quarters. The unique Tudor style is charming with the characteristic pitched gabled roof, decorative wood, stonework and leaded windows. Stone walls and a substantial Belgian block courtyard create a private elegant entrance. A welcoming vestibule opens to the graciously scaled rooms with French doors to the terrace and beautiful gardens designed to respect the natural topography.
