A Gothic revival home in Oyster Bay, with a greenhouse and two guest houses on site, is on the market for $10.888 million. The annual property taxes are $96,212.
Built in 1856, the main house contains six bedrooms and five bathrooms. It sits on 16.14 acres. There are four stories, complete with nine fireplaces. The property was designed by English architect Henry G. Harrison, who had a distinct vision for the layout, said listing agent Claudia Echeverri, of VORO.
"He created everything in harmony with nature," she said. "It's really beautiful."
There are views of Oyster Bay Harbor and the main house is surrounded by greenery.
"There is a greenhouse where you feel like you’re in the country, and don't even have to go outside," Echeverri said. The homeowner can grow vegetables and herbs in there, she added.

"It feels like you’ve been back in time," Echeverri said.
The property is served by the Oyster Bay-East Norwich Central School District.
