Protected by 355 acres of natural beauty and professionally landscaped gardens; Rice Mountain is one of the finest estates on the market today. The main residence was completed in 1979 incorporating the Dudley Friedman House, Norman Tower, Peak House, and Tudor Tower. This architecturally exceptional house is masterfully crafted with superb masonry, millwork and custom materials. Four other restored buildings complete and compliment the estate including guest houses, a caretaker's cabin, barns and other outbuildings. The home is integrated into the natural setting of the property and expertly sited and angled to maximize the captivating views. Resplendent with the sights and sounds of nature, the private one of a kind estate offers a peaceful and inspiring retreat.
