This afternoon I was searching through google for Alpine, NJ architects. I stumbled upon the website of Munafo Design; an architecture, design, and planning company. I looked up their residential projects and found this. The minute I saw it, I said “Jackpot!”. Being obsessed with mega mansions and especially the town of Alpine, you could only imagine how happy I was. The plans for this home were approved in 2008. The estate, dubbed “Palace LoConte”, is described as a Mediterranean Luxury Palazzo. It is going to encompass a grand 25,300 square feet of living space, which will easily put it on the list of the top 10 largest homes in the Alpine/Saddle River area. It doesn’t mention what street the estate will be built on, but I can almost guarantee that it is going to be built in the “Estates at Alpine” located next to the Frick Estate. As you already know, the $52 million spec mansion was just recently completed in the Estates at Alpine. The owner of the home obviously has the last name of LoConte, so I did a little research and found out that there is a Mr. Anthony Lo Conte who lives on Marie Major Drive in Alpine. Mr. Lo Conte is Director of Bancorp of New Jersey, Inc. He is also President and CEO of Anthony L and S, LLC.

Here is what the home will have:

FIRST FLOOR: two Story Entry Foyer, Grand Rotunda Stairway, Master Suite with separate Master Bath and His and Her WIC, Dining Room. Library and Living Room with cathedral ceiling.Family Room Rotunda, Breakfast Room, Den with Bar and Card Room, Laundry Room, Pantry, Secondary Stair, four car Garage, Outdoor Kitchen under two story Porch.

SECOND FLOOR: four large secondary Bedrooms with Baths ensuite, Game Room, Upper Library, Rear balconies.

LOWER LEVEL: Reception/Ball Room, Home Theater, Exercise Room, Wine Cellar, Spa,  Sauna, Elevator, duplicate Grand Double stairs, Electrical and Mechanical rooms. Two separate connecting Guest Spaces, over the four car garage.

Large Swimming Pool.

Picture 2

Do you guys remember this 25,000+ square foot mansion that I brought to your attention when it was being built? Well, I finally found interior pics of the huge V-shaped mansion, which is located on Paloma Road in Los Altos, CA. My friend, and a loyal Homes of the Rich reader, George Lyons, brought them to my attention. The pictures are featured on the architect’s website. The architects are the prestigious Hablinski + Manion Architectural & Planning group. The home’s interior was tastefully done and does not feel too big.

Here is an excerpt from the company’s website:

Bay Estate ▪ Palo Alto Loire Chateau
Set on a spectacular 18-acre hilltop site with panoramic views of the San Francisco Bay, this classical estate inspired by 18th-century French chateaux is organized around a central entry court enclosing a formal entrance on three sides. The north wing is designed for entertaining on a grand scale, with a ballroom, formal dining room, home theater, wine cellar and spa/gym, while the south wing houses family rooms and bedroom suites. The living areas are all located on the second floor to take advantage of the dramatic Bay views.
