Original Gold Coast estate owned by Brooks Brothers owner asks $12.5M

Claudio Del Vecchio, CEO and owner of Brooks Brothers, has put his incredible Long Island mansion on the market for $12.5 million, Sotheby’s International Realty tells 6sqft. Built in 1915 as one of the original Gold Coast estates, the home is known as “Cedar Hill.” It sits on eight acres that contain a heated gunite pool, tennis court with lights, putting green, and English-walled gardens. Inside, the 13,000-square-foot home is full of historic details and has over-the-top perks like an indoor pool, dog spa, and wine cellar.

The home sits behind a gated entrance and has been completely renovated and restored. There’s a huge horseshoe driveway, as well as a five-car garage with radiant heat.

Surrounding the property are gorgeous English-style gardens, complete with fountains, pathways, and lovely landscaping.
