Description

"Roselawn" is a landmark Gothic/Revival/Italian Villa estate that was later extended by George Champlin Mason. It is sited on Bellevue Avenue at the entrance to Ocean Drive within walking distance to Bailey's Beach or public Bellevue South Beach. This beautifully maintained house is set back from the road for complete privacy. It has exquisite original details throughout. In addition to the main house there is a carriage house with parking for 4 cars and an apartment for guest quarters, family, or staff. The 1.44 acre grounds are manicured with mature plantings. The main house is introduced by a gracious entry with handsome flooring that gives way to a library, a formal LR, DR, a fireplaced family room, an office, and sunroom. The fully equipped kitchen has an abutting butler's pantry. There is detailed woodwork throughout. The second floor master bedroom suite has a peaceful sitting room, a marble fireplace, a sunroom, and a private lift from the first floor. Also on this floor are 3 additional bedrooms and baths. Access is also available to an apartment for family or nanny. The third floor has 3 additional bedrooms, a laundry, and bath. Porches offer covered outdoor space at this compound. The estate's ample guest quarters include living quarters for family or friends. Views of the ocean and a white sandy beach are a short stroll away.
