Few addresses on earth carry the glamour of OHEKA CASTLE, a real-life Gatsby estate, crowning the highest point on Long Island's storied Gold Coast in Cold Spring Harbor. Built in 1919 for financier and arts patron Otto Kahn by Delano and Aldrich, one of the Gold Coast's premier architectural firms, the estate is the second-largest private residence ever constructed in America. OHEKA CASTLE is a monument to Jazz Age ambition and French Renaissance design. Its Grand Staircase, inspired by France's Chateau de Fontainebleau, its soaring Ballroom, and its Grand Library with hand-restored faux bois walls speak to a level of craftsmanship rarely attempted at property of this scale. Formal Gardens by the Olmsted Brothers, with landscape contributions by Beatrix Farrand, unfold across the grounds in a sequence of reflecting pools, fountains, and manicured terraces recreated from the original drawings.
Since hosting its first wedding in 1920, OHEKA CASTLE has welcomed royalty, heads of state, and Hollywood's biggest names, and has provided the backdrop for Citizen Kane, Royal Pains, Succession, and Taylor Swift's "Blank Space." Following a $40 million restoration, the largest private residential restoration in American history, this National Register landmark stands today as one of the rarest trophy properties in the country. A Town of Huntington-approved development project on the estate's southeast corner adds further opportunity, clearing the way for 95 new, luxury condominium residences on 5.13 acres at the South-east corner of the property, carrying the story of this iconic address into its next century. OHEKA CASTLE continues to host a thriving calendar of weddings, events, and catering that already place the property in a class of its own.

Pocas direcciones en el mundo tienen el glamour de OHEKA CASTLE, una auténtica finca al estilo de Gatsby que corona el punto más alto de la histórica Costa Dorada de Long Island, en Cold Spring Harbor. Construida en 1919 por Delano y Aldrich —uno de los principales estudios de arquitectura de la Costa Dorada— para el financiero y mecenas Otto Kahn, la finca es la segunda residencia privada más grande jamás construida en Estados Unidos. OHEKA CASTLE es un monumento a la ambición de la Era del Jazz y al diseño del Renacimiento francés. Su Gran Escalera, inspirada en el castillo francés de Fontainebleau, su imponente salón de baile y su Gran Biblioteca, con paredes de imitación de madera restauradas a mano, dan testimonio de un nivel de artesanía que rara vez se ha intentado en una propiedad de esta envergadura. Los jardines formales, obra de los hermanos Olmsted, con aportaciones paisajísticas de Beatrix Farrand, se extienden por los terrenos en una sucesión de estanques reflectantes, fuentes y terrazas cuidadosamente mantenidas, recreadas a partir de los planos originales.
Desde que acogió su primera boda en 1920, el CASTILLO DE OHEKA ha recibido a miembros de la realeza, jefes de Estado y a las figuras más destacadas de Hollywood, y ha servido de escenario para «Ciudadano Kane», «Royal Pains», «Succession» y el videoclip «Blank Space» de Taylor Swift. Tras una restauración de 40 millones de dólares —la mayor restauración de una vivienda privada en la historia de Estados Unidos—, este monumento incluido en el Registro Nacional se erige hoy como una de las propiedades más exclusivas del país. Un proyecto urbanístico aprobado por el Ayuntamiento de Huntington en la esquina sureste de la finca ofrece nuevas oportunidades, allanando el camino para la construcción de 95 nuevos apartamentos de lujo.

Peu d’adresses au monde possèdent le prestige de l’OHEKA CASTLE, véritable domaine à la Gatsby, qui trône au sommet de la Gold Coast de Long Island, à Cold Spring Harbor. Construit en 1919 pour le financier et mécène Otto Kahn par Delano et Aldrich, l’un des plus prestigieux cabinets d’architectes de la Gold Coast, ce domaine est la deuxième plus grande résidence privée jamais construite aux États-Unis. OHEKA CASTLE est un monument à l’ambition de l’ère du jazz et au style de la Renaissance française. Son grand escalier, inspiré du château de Fontainebleau, sa salle de bal aux voûtes vertigineuses et sa grande bibliothèque aux murs en faux bois restaurés à la main témoignent d’un niveau de savoir-faire rarement atteint dans une propriété de cette envergure. Les jardins à la française, conçus par les frères Olmsted avec la contribution paysagère de Beatrix Farrand, se déploient sur le domaine en une succession de bassins miroirs, de fontaines et de terrasses soigneusement entretenues, recréées à partir des plans d’origine.
Depuis qu’il a accueilli son premier mariage en 1920, OHEKA CASTLE a reçu des membres de la royauté, des chefs d’État et les plus grandes stars d’Hollywood, et a servi de décor à « Citizen Kane », « Royal Pains », « Succession » et au clip « Blank Space » de Taylor Swift. Après une restauration de 40 millions de dollars, la plus importante restauration d’une résidence privée de l’histoire des États-Unis, ce monument inscrit au Registre national s’impose aujourd’hui comme l’un des biens immobiliers les plus exceptionnels du pays. Un projet immobilier approuvé par la ville de Huntington, situé à l’angle sud-est du domaine, offre de nouvelles opportunités, ouvrant la voie à la construction de 95 nouveaux appartements de luxe.

Pochi luoghi al mondo vantano il fascino di OHEKA CASTLE, una vera e propria tenuta alla Gatsby che domina il punto più alto della leggendaria Gold Coast di Long Island, a Cold Spring Harbor. Costruita nel 1919 per il finanziere e mecenate Otto Kahn dallo studio Delano e Aldrich, uno dei principali studi di architettura della Gold Coast, la tenuta è la seconda residenza privata più grande mai costruita in America. OHEKA CASTLE è un monumento all’ambizione dell’Età del Jazz e al design del Rinascimento francese. La sua Grande Scalinata, ispirata al Castello di Fontainebleau in Francia, la sua imponente Sala da Ballo e la sua Grande Biblioteca con pareti in finto legno restaurate a mano testimoniano un livello di maestria artigianale raramente eguagliato in una proprietà di queste dimensioni. I giardini formali realizzati dagli Olmsted Brothers, con il contributo paesaggistico di Beatrix Farrand, si snodano lungo il parco in una sequenza di specchi d’acqua, fontane e terrazze ben curate, ricreate sulla base dei disegni originali.
Da quando ha ospitato il suo primo matrimonio nel 1920, OHEKA CASTLE ha accolto membri della famiglia reale, capi di Stato e i più grandi nomi di Hollywood, e ha fatto da sfondo a “Quarto potere”, “Royal Pains”, “Succession” e al video di “Blank Space” di Taylor Swift. A seguito di un restauro da 40 milioni di dollari, il più grande intervento di restauro su una residenza privata nella storia degli Stati Uniti, questo monumento iscritto nel Registro Nazionale si erge oggi come una delle proprietà più rare e prestigiose del Paese. Un progetto di sviluppo approvato dalla città di Huntington nell’angolo sud-est della tenuta offre ulteriori opportunità, aprendo la strada alla realizzazione di 95 nuovi appartamenti di lusso in condominio.

世上鮮有哪處地標能如奧赫卡城堡(OHEKA CASTLE)般充滿魅力——這座宛如現實版《大亨小傳》中蓋茨比莊園的建築,矗立於長島歷史悠久的「黃金海岸」科德斯普林港(Cold Spring Harbor)最高處。該莊園由「黃金海岸」頂尖建築事務所之一——德拉諾與奧爾德里奇(Delano and Aldrich)——於1919年為金融家暨藝術贊助人奧托·卡恩(Otto Kahn)所建,是美國有史以來建造的第二大私人宅邸。歐赫卡城堡是「爵士時代」雄心壯志與法國文藝復興風格設計的紀念碑。其靈感源自法國楓丹白露宮的「宏偉階梯」、氣勢恢宏的舞廳,以及牆面經手工修復、呈現仿木紋效果的「宏偉圖書館」,無不展現出在如此規模的建築中極為罕見的工藝水準。由奧姆斯特德兄弟(Olmsted Brothers)設計、貝特麗克斯·法蘭德(Beatrix Farrand)參與景觀規劃的正式花園,依循原始設計圖重現,在莊園內鋪展出一系列倒影池、噴泉及修剪整齊的露台。
自1920年舉辦首場婚禮以來,奧赫卡城堡(OHEKA CASTLE)曾接待過王室成員、國家元首及好萊塢巨星,並為電影《公民凱恩》、《皇家痛症》、《繼承之戰》以及泰勒·斯威夫特(Taylor Swift)的《Blank Space》音樂錄影帶提供了絕佳取景地。歷經耗資4,000萬美元的修復工程——這也是美國史上規模最大的私人住宅修復計畫——這座列入《國家歷史名錄》的地標建築,如今已成為全美最稀有的頂級豪宅之一。亨廷頓鎮已批准在莊園東南角進行的開發計畫,為該地帶來更多發展契機,為興建95戶全新豪華公寓鋪平道路。

قليلة هي الأماكن على وجه الأرض التي تتمتع بسحر «قلعة أوهيكا»، تلك الملكية التي تبدو وكأنها خرجت من رواية «غاتسبي»، والتي تتوج أعلى نقطة في «الساحل الذهبي» العريق بجزيرة لونغ آيلاند في كولد سبرينغ هاربور. شُيدت هذه الملكية عام 1919 لصالح رجل المال وراعي الفنون أوتو كان على يد شركة «ديلانو وألدريتش»، إحدى أبرز شركات الهندسة المعمارية في «الساحل الذهبي»، وتُعد ثاني أكبر مسكن خاص شُيد على الإطلاق في أمريكا. يُعد «قلعة أوهيكا» نصبًا تذكاريًّا لطموحات عصر الجاز وتصميمات عصر النهضة الفرنسية. فدرجها الكبير، المستوحى من «شاتو دو فونتينبلو» الفرنسي، وقاعة الرقص الشاهقة، ومكتبتها الكبرى ذات الجدران المزخرفة بنمط «فو بوا» (imitation wood) التي تم ترميمها يدويًّا، كلها تعكس مستوىً من الحرفية نادرًا ما يُحاول تحقيقه في عقار بهذا الحجم. تمتد الحدائق الرسمية التي صممها الأخوان أولمستيد، بمساهمة بياتريكس فاراند في تصميم المناظر الطبيعية، عبر أرجاء المجمع في سلسلة من البرك العاكسة، والنوافير، والتراسات المُعتنى بها جيدًا والتي أُعيد إنشاؤها وفقًا للرسومات الأصلية.
منذ استضافتها لحفل الزفاف الأول في عام 1920، استقبلت قلعة أوهيكا أفراد العائلات المالكة ورؤساء الدول وأكبر الأسماء في هوليوود، وشكلت خلفية لفيلم «سيتيزن كين» ومسلسلات «رويال بينز» و«سوكسيسيون» ومقطع فيديو أغنية «بلانك سبيس» لتايلور سويفت. وبعد عملية ترميم بلغت تكلفتها 40 مليون دولار، وهي أكبر عملية ترميم سكني خاص في تاريخ الولايات المتحدة، يقف هذا المعلم المدرج في السجل الوطني اليوم كواحد من أندر العقارات الفاخرة في البلاد. ويضيف مشروع تطوير عقاري معتمد من بلدية هنتنغتون في الركن الجنوبي الشرقي للملكية فرصًا إضافية، مما يمهد الطريق لإنشاء 95 شقة سكنية فاخرة جديدة
