Proudly presenting Sherman Castle, a historic stone mansion representing the pinnacle of prestigious living and built in 1928 for artist Lee Jeffreys, whose inheritance from his mother, heiress to the Domino Sugar Company fortune, helped bring this architectural masterpiece to life. This grand estate offers 20 exquisitely crafted rooms within its sturdy 18-inch stone walls and spans over 10,000 sq ft. Set on a picturesque 2-acre lot in an exclusive enclave of estate-sized properties, Sherman Castle also includes a one-acre wooded lot across the road, providing even more privacy. Utica, known as the “Gateway to the Adirondacks,” is nearby, with Old Forge, a popular destination within the Adirondack National Park, is just a 45-minute drive. Equestrian facilities are only 10-15 minutes, while Turning Stone Casino Resort with world-class golf is 25 minutes west. A short drive from Syracuse International Airport with NYC just 248 miles away. Located in the top-ranked New Hartford Central School District, this iconic estate offers historical significance, artistic heritage, and an ideal location for those seeking a balance between rural charm and accessibility.
