Celebrity CEO's Hudson Valley Estate For Sale for $30 Million

HUDSON VALLEY, NY — New York City-based socialite, philanthropist, artist and Old Fashioned Mom CEO Michelle-Marie Heinemann has listed her 32,000-square-foot country estate at 1111 Route 376 in Wappingers Falls for $30 million.

Heinemann is known for her art work, paintings and vivacious lifestyle, and was twice courted to be a member of The Real Housewives of New York cast (turning down the opportunities due to family obligations).

She is currently exploring New York City storefront locations for her Old Fashioned Mom-brand coffee, and a Palm Beach location for an Old Fashioned Mom-brand boutique hotel.

She was just in England for the Royal Wedding celebrations. The estate is one of the crown jewels of the Hudson Valley.

Its 25.14 acres offer complete solitude while conveniently located on Route 376, which has been called the 5th Avenue of Country Living.

The colonial mansion includes nine bedrooms, eleven bathrooms, five half-baths, a solarium, two libraries, eight wood-burning fireplaces, two kitchens, a wine cellar, an ice rink, a home theatre, a three-story glass rotunda in private wing, multiple verandas, and an art gallery.

There is an 8,000 square foot veranda with panoramic views of the sculpture gardens. The mansion displays an eclectic mix of antiques, keepsakes and cherished artwork.

Also on the property is a 3-car garage above which sits an artist’s studio. The manicured property includes seven formal gardens, two swimming pools (indoor and outdoor) with pool cabana, a tennis court, a basketball court, three playgrounds and an English conservatory.

This residence evokes a spirit of comfort and an entertaining ambience at every turn. It’s a one-of-a-kind masterpiece awaiting that one client seeking grand and extraordinary.

The Dutchess County property of Michelle-Marie Heinemann includes an elaborately decorated, roughly 32,000-square-foot home with an art gallery​; ‘tiny homes’ for staff in upstate New York

Socialite Michelle-Marie Heinemann said she spent two decades creating an elaborate estate in Dutchess County, N.Y. Now she’s looking to sell her creation for $30 million.

In Wappingers Falls, Ms. Heinemann purchased a 6,000-square-foot house for $440,000 in 1998 and expanded it to more than 32,000 square feet. Now it includes nine bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, five half-bathrooms, two libraries, a basketball court, a three-story solarium and an art gallery. “It’s been like a little baby in a cradle,” she said. “It’s been loved, adored and respected and, as a result, it’s grown.”

The home is decorated in extravagant French-inspired furnishings. The dining room is clad in French powder-blue oak paneling, with a cloud mural by the family portrait artist on the ceiling. The velvet chairs have lavender tassels and bullion, and the walls are adorned with portraits of her young children. “Color and texture move me. That’s how I decorate,” she said.

The solarium features 35-feet-tall bulletproof glass walls and one of the roughly seven pianos in the home. The furniture isn’t included in the sale. Ms. Heinemann, who is also an artist, displays her giant flower-tree sculptures in the garden and plans to donate them when the house sells, she said.

 

 The staff live in three so-called ‘tiny houses’ on the land.

The staff lives in three so-called “tiny houses” on the roughly 25-acre property. The homes, which range in size from 550 to 675 square feet, were commissioned by Ms. Heinemann after she came across the “tiny home” phenomenon on a trip to Switzerland. The homes must be decorated in a minimalist fashion, since they are so small. “I had to exercise a lot of restraint,” she said.

 Ms. Heinemann’s giant flower tree sculptures are on display in the garden.

 A piano in the solarium is one of about seven on the property.

 The home comprises 9 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms.

Ms. Heinemann is the founder of a lifestyle brand called Old Fashioned Mom, which she said aims to apply old-fashioned values of traditional motherhood while remaining “au courant” in a modern world. The New York-based company produces a magazine and a video series, and plans to open coffee shops in New York City and London’s Mayfair neighborhood, Ms. Heinemann said.

Ms. Heinemann said she is selling because she wants to spend more time in New York and London. “We have loved this house, but life is about growing and evolving,” she said.
