"Everything was overseen and approved by a feng shui master, so every single flower was selected for its color and placement. One of the waterfalls was redirected for good fortune," listing agent Maggie Keats of Douglas Elliman Real Estate said. She and agent Jill Berman are representing the sellers.

It’s a smart house, with outdoor speakers, two washing machines and two dryers, the three-car garage is heated and all the stone floors have radiant heating, she said.
The lower level "is an extravaganza," she added, with 12-foot ceilings, a pool table, bar, movie theater with 11 reclining seats imported from Germany, 1,000-bottle capacity wine cellar, arts and crafts room, bedroom and bathroom suite.
"This is really one of a kind; so thoughtfully done and so elegantly done," Keats said.
Taxes on the property in the Jericho School District are $76,320.
