Home Details for 7 Folie Court

Welcome to the sanctuary in North Hills - a one-of-a-kind Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired contemporary masterpiece, creating a living space that feels both timeless and inviting. The home echoes Wright’s approach, using natural local material such as wood and stone, with strong horizontal lines and clean geometry. Wright also used windows and skylights to bring natural light deep into interiors and frame views of the landscape, and integrated art and custom designed elements throughout his homes, all elements incorporated throughout this home. Thoughtfully conceived by renowned architect Tim Maldonado, this 1.30-acre, 7,200 +/- sqft estate in the village of North Hills offers a rare opportunity to experience refined luxury in a serene, private setting just minutes from New York City and the Hamptons. The 4 Bedroom, 7 bathroom residence was designed with complete privacy and artistic expression in mind. Clean lines, natural materials, and dramatic spatial relationships foster a fluid connection between indoors and out. Positioned along the primary street frontage and balanced by a sculptural cottage at the far end of the combined parcels, the estate becomes a secluded preserve—an immersive sanctuary that celebrates sculpture, serenity, and modern luxury. Upon entry, the entrance features an elegant pair of intricately carved wooden doors imported from Paris. A sleek, modern sculpture stands to one side, contrasting beautifully with the natural elements. The overall design harmonizes traditional and contemporary styles, making the entrance both charming and sophisticated. The home is further distinguished with expansive flamed Canadian granite floors, while a striking water feature frames the floating steel staircase. The chef’s kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, featuring top-tier Miele, Subzero and Wolf appliances, bespoke European rift oak cabinetry, custom Ann Sacks tile, granite countertops, and a dedicated coffee station and pantry. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a collection of serene, retreat-like bedrooms, two with its own en-suite bath, walls and ceilings finished in high-gloss lacquer for a refined, modern aesthetic. The primary suite is a private sanctuary, offering a spa-inspired bath with an oversized steam shower, multiple rain and body shower heads, a deep soaking tub, dual walk-in closets, a built-in coffee station, and a private balcony overlooking the grounds. Nestled within lush, manicured grounds, the property offers an outdoor oasis, complete with a striking in-ground heated pool and spa, framed by mature fig trees, vibrant hydrangeas, a Koi pond, and expansive lounging and dining areas—ideal for alfresco dining, entertaining and quiet relaxation. Adding to the estate’s unique appeal is a separate, award-winning cottage known as “Waterfall Pavillion” that received a Design Award of Merit from the Society of American Registered Architects (SARA) New York in the 2007 Design Awards. Designed with the warm, rustic charm of a mountain retreat, the pavilion features soaring ceilings with exposed beams, rich custom millwork, oversized windows with automated blinds, and refined finishes throughout creating a serene, Aspen-like atmosphere. The Pavillion includes a full kitchen outfitted with Wolf appliances, a luxurious spa-style bath, and a versatile flex space. No detail has been overlooked in the ongoing care and maintenance of the property. A heated three-car garage, finished lower level with kitchen, 1,000 bottle count temperature-controlled wine cellar, updated five-zone central AC, commercial-grade reflective tinted glass windows, and a durable rubberized roof all speak to the same level of thoughtfulness and quality that defines every inch of this remarkable home. This property is more than a residence—it’s a work of art. A private sanctuary where contemporary design, nature, and luxury converge in one of Manhasset’s most prestigious communities.
