The views in the master bath are almost as stunning as the deep clawfoot soaking tub or large walk-in shower.

A fishing pond. Chicken coop. Duck house. Blueberry grove. Pumpkin patch. Multiple gardens. A barn.

That’s just some of what sits on the 171 acres of property at 5640 N. Montour Road in Richland Township, Gibsonia.

“You can really live off of this land — it’s a true farm-to-table lifestyle,” said Piatt Sotheby’s Emily Wilhelm, who is the listing agent. “It’s so key in today’s market and the current environment we’re in. It offers seclusion, yet it’s in the middle of everything.”

Astorino Architects designed the nearly 9,400 square-foot mansion, which was built in 2013. It came on the market Sept. 29 at a listing price of $6.1 million.

And while it is large, Wilhelm said that it really feels like a home.

“The quality of construction is unbelievable,” she said. “In today’s environment, it has two home offices, so it’s a great place for a family who’s homeschooling kids, or a dual-income family that’s working from home. This really speaks to today’s buyer.”

There are four bedrooms, four full and two half bathrooms, a finished lower level with radiant heated floors, a home theater and a whiskey tasting room with a built-in humidor.

The gourmet kitchen boasts a Wolf gas range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, built-in Miele coffee maker, custom wood cabinetry and quartz countertops.

The living room is a showpiece, with a vaulted exposed beam ceiling, stone fireplace and French doors that open to an outdoor patio.

In the master suite, dual walk-in dressing rooms, a deep clawfoot soaking tub and a separate shower are just some of the luxurious touches.

For Wilhelm, the turret might just be the most impressive feature.

“Architecturally, the turret in front, on the interior there’s a four-story spiral staircase that runs from the basement up to a third-floor lookout. The view from the top down is stunning, and from down up is unbelievable,” she said.
