From the Zillow listing:

This historic home has never been offered on the open market. The R. L. Stone House, also known as Ithaca Estate, is a rare and near pristine Classical Greek Revival style home built approximately 1935. The huge, 6000+ sq ft house presides atop a hill on 2.88 acres, surrounded by a newly renovated swimming pool, beautiful landscaping, and a 3-car garage with a 620 sq ft apartment above and a pool house below. The property also houses a barn and even its own chicken house. Inside, the grand staircase sweeps upward with all the grace and curves of a classic Southern Belle to a unique double stair hallway on the second floor. The newly renovated kitchen features a Viking commercial gas stove, glittering quartz countertops, original wood floors and a huge picture window. The formal dining room is decorated with custom drapery and matching padded tapestry wall coverings and original crystal light fixtures. This beloved and unique home has 5 working fireplaces. There is also a former butler’s quarters, which has been fully renovated and can be used as a private guest suite or AirBnB. This house is on both State and National Historic Registers.
