Whenever you think you’ve seen extravagant or flamboyant settings in Northern Virginia homes, you need only open the Washington Post Real Estate section to see just how ... humble ... your ideas are.
You know when you take your kids to a play date or birthday party, and you first see the grand piano? Or the 12-foot-wide painting? Or the third addition?
Now check out Castleton Farms.
Conductor Lorin Maazel and singer Dietlinde Ruban Maazel own Castleton Farms in Rappahanock County. What was once – simply – an enormous bed and breakfast, is now a manor that has become their estate. You know, like in that place Bruce Wayne lives.
The Maazels have 10 fireplaces (2 in the master bedroom), lambs in the front yard, a 130-seat theater in the backyard, and the spa — with a steam room for 20 people. Underground, the Farms have "subterranean hallways that look and feel like airplane jetways."
How about you?What homes and houses have you seen lately that make you say, whoa? Pass on your ideas; comment below!
