Concierge Auctions' September/October Lineup Features:

Somerset County, New Jersey — Bidding Opens October 16^th; Ends October 19^th
Cragwood Estate | 460 Lake Road

The Cragwood Estate is a recently refurbished estate in the countryside hilltops of New Jersey, overlooking the Somerset Hills and Ravine Lake. Set on 95 acres, the historic Georgian estate is situated in a quiet enclave comprised of 16,160 square feet with nine bedrooms, a chef's kitchen with commercial-grade appliances, a private master wing with his and hers dressing rooms, formal and casual dining rooms, a l'orangerie or sun room, theater, playroom, additional kitchenette, library, interior elevator and wine cellar. Built in 1899 and completed as an estate in 1923, the home features period artistry and finishes, hardwood floors, chandeliers, wall frescoes, a two-story foyer, walls for art collection, French doors, fireplaces in every room, and a unique forestry program designed to keep wood for all fireplaces.

Outdoor amenities include multiple verandas, a wraparound terrace, an arched portico lounge, swimming pool with a 2,590-square-foot pool house, tennis court, a five-unit staff apartment building, an Adirondack cottage, five offices and meeting rooms, a security gate house, and a 14-car garage. The lush grounds feature English meadows; a formal walled garden; a sculpture garden; perennial gardens; fountains; a working farm with vegetable garden, apple orchard, greenhouse, farm buildings, stables, and kennels; and forested landscaping.

Previously listed for $23 million, the estate will sell Without Reserve in cooperation with William Hobbs of Evans & Nye.

"We are the third family fortunate enough to bring up our children at Cragwood. It is the essence of not just a lifestyle, but of our family life itself. As custodians of such a special place, we now pass it to the next family lucky enough to be the fourth new generation in this most beautiful home," stated the seller, John Bailye.

Atlanta, Georgia — Bidding Opens September 18^th; Ends September 20^th
The Rice House Atlanta | 9110 Barkston Drive

Currently listed for $14.7 million, The Rice House Atlanta is a 36,000-square-foot Grecian fortress known as one of the "safest homes in America." The Greek Revival-style home is set in the prestigious, 900-acre Country Club of the South, home to many affluent celebrities. While the community is patrolled 24 hours a day, the estate also features an embedded security system by renowned global security expert and founder of Strategically Armored and Fortified Environment (SAFE), Al Corbi.

Boasting panoramic views of the lake and woodlands, the property features a 15,000-square-foot bunker with command center and concealed entrances/exits. Its embedded security system includes safe core rooms in the master and guest bedrooms; decorative door closures from Peetz, Frankfurt Germany; and remote-operated ballistic doors and walls, which are designed to be impenetrable. The property also features nine fireplaces with masonry construction throughout, a wine cellar location with a hand-chiseled ceiling, a concealed conversation tunnel, observation tower, and an infrared sauna. Additional amenities include an octagonal glass conservatory location at the infinity pool; a bank vault room; a 750-square-foot home theater location; a two-lane bowling alley location; a two-station gun range location with a concealed entry and secret escape access; and a time capsule with a bronze medallion cover, created to preserve personal artifacts. In addition to two commercial-sized elevator locations offering high speeds between floors, the home includes three kitchen locations — a traditional, summer, and catering kitchen — and a 5,000-square-foot car vault. All water sources on the development are passed through a water purification system and the estate includes three means of power supply — municipal, generator, and solar.

Selling At or Above $3.9 million in cooperation with Paul Wegener of Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby's International Realty, The Rice House awaits final completion decisions on interior and exterior finishes, providing one lucky bidder the opportunity to realize the incredible potential of the estate. To ensure a smooth transaction for the new owner, general contractors, architects, engineers, and landscape design are available for consulting on-site.

"This is a unique opportunity to complete a true masterpiece," stated Wegener. "While the estate currently stands as a stately fortress with the necessary foundations to last a thousand years, it has the potential to be an extraordinary presidential or diplomatic compound, equipped with amenities to provide a luxurious, private lifestyle." 

Honolulu, Hawaii — Bidding Opens September 25^th; Ends September 28^th
Luakaha Mauka Estate | 4155 Nu'uanu Pali Drive

The Luakaha Mauka Estate — cared for by the same family for five generations — will be available to the public for the first time. Built in 1903, the 2,696-square-foot estate sits on 2.3 acres, boasting four bedrooms, an expansive front lanai, and al fresco dining. Interior details include high ceilings, dark hardwood floors, a lava rock fireplace, and potential for solar energy usage. Built in the Hawaiian mountain bungalow-style, the home features a shingled exterior with a corrugated steel roof, and distinctive lava rock lanai columns and foundation.

With land adjacent to the property once used as a retreat for King Kamehameha III, the banyan tree-lined property is a tranquil escape offering exceptional views and privacy with easy access to the 50-foot Luakaha Falls, downtown Honolulu, and multiple world-renowned beaches and golf courses nearby.

Previously listed for $7.5 million, the home and its adjacent home sites will sell Collectively or Separately Without Reserve in cooperation with Erik Hinshaw of Hawaii Life. The four offerings include the entire property with home and 2.3 total acres; the home on 1.393 acres; a 20,003-square-foot (.459-acre) home site; and a 20,213-square-foot (.464-acre) home site.

"In many ways, this is a fantasy property. A century-plus home overlooking a 50-foot waterfall, backed by a lush hillside in one of Hawaii's most historically significant areas. Much loved as a summer escape for even Hawaii royals, the home and two lots are available separately or collectively," stated Hinshaw. "Two-plus acres of botanic gardens just minutes from downtown Honolulu and all its urban offerings is also a rarity. Being here feels like an escape to a quiet neighboring island, or even back in time."

Westlake Village, California — Bidding Opens September 25^th; Ends September 28^th
Live on the Edge of Paradise | 1064 Lakeview Canyon Road

Nicknamed Live on the Edge of Paradise, the French manor is located in the exclusive Country Club Estates in the hills of Westlake Village. Boasting eight bedrooms, the 12,167-square-foot estate includes a formal two-story foyer with an arched ceiling, chandelier, and staircase; two levels of contiguous living space with elevator access; a large family room, gourmet kitchen and formal dining room with large windows allowing for natural light; skylights; multiple fireplaces throughout; a master retreat with private balcony and spa; a wood-paneled bar; a stone and wood-lined wine cellar; and a four-car garage. Outdoors, the property offers mountain and golf course views, and includes a veranda and pool area featuring a cabana, gazebo and outdoor barbecue bar; a putting green; and impeccable landscaping.

Previously listed for $6.499 million, the property will sell Without Reserve in cooperation with Nicole Van Parys and Gary Nesen of Engel & Völkers Westlake Village.

"This estate has storybook charm, set among gorgeous stonework and lush gardens. We find it appeals to our most sophisticated clientele," stated Van Parys. "Each time we cruise up the privately gated drive, the sun sparkles through the trees and we feel like we are arriving to a secluded villa."
