The main residence on this Crete property features four bedrooms, four full baths, three half-baths and five fireplaces with approximately 2,000 square feet of unfinished attic space with 16-foot ceilings. The home also has a coach house with three bedrooms, two full baths, one half-bath, a four-car garage and an additional 1,000 square feet of unfinished attic space, also with 16-foot ceilings. Both structures are topped with slate roofs and have the original leaded glass windows. The construction of the 1923 home, known as the Haweswood Estate or the Crete Christmas House, spanned five years and used stone masons, plaster workers, tile journeymen, bricklayers and wood craftsmen. The hardwood floors were crafted from trees on the property. Inside, original features such as hand-carved marble fireplace mantles, plaster walls, columns and original flooring are still intact. Outside, there is a self-cleaning, in-ground pool along with a hot tub, a bocce ball court and a cabana with a bar and seating area, surrounded by landscaping.
