Set along one of Mineola West’s most prestigious and tree-lined addresses, 190 Donnelly Drive presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a private family estate of rare distinction. Revered as “The Garden House” by David Small Designs and masterfully built by Seven Oaks Homes, this extraordinary residence unfolds across an unparalleled 104’ x 330’ estate lot, where mature trees, curated gardens, and timeless Colonial Williamsburg inspiration create an atmosphere of enduring elegance and seclusion.
Architecture of remarkable authenticity defines the exterior, where a Flemish Bond red clay brick façade, hand-carved brick detailing, vintage copper accents, and a historically inspired chimney evoke the charm of America’s most celebrated heritage homes. Thoughtful craftsmanship extends to the DaVinci slate-style roof, copper eaves, Kolbe windows, and a gracious paved driveway leading to an oversized double garage, offering both grandeur and everyday practicality for modern family living.
Beyond the grand custom entry, approximately 8,000 square feet of refined interior space reveals itself through exquisite millwork, reclaimed wide-plank hardwood floors, plaster crown mouldings, and coffered and beamed ceilings. Formal and informal spaces unfold seamlessly, highlighted by a gracious dining room with butler’s pantry, and a dramatic Great Room with soaring coffered ceilings and garden views anchors the home with both beauty and functionality. At the heart of the residence, the chef’s kitchen stands as a masterpiece of form and function, appointed with premium Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, an oversized centre island, and skylit ceilings crowned by a distinctive cupola. Open sightlines connect to inviting gathering spaces and garden-facing sitting areas, ensuring seamless interaction between culinary, dining, and family moments. Completing this level is a serene primary suite, a private home
office, and a thoughtfully designed mudroom and laundry area, creating a perfectly balanced environment for elegant entertaining and everyday family life.
The upper level is thoughtfully designed as a private family retreat, where an elegant hardwood staircase leads to beautifully proportioned bedrooms finished with reclaimed wide-plank hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and refined architectural detailing throughout. Each room offers a sense of comfort and individuality, complemented by luxurious ensuite and main baths adorned with natural stone, skylights, and classic fixtures. Cohesive millwork, coffered ceilings, and abundant natural light create an atmosphere of quiet sophistication, ensuring this level functions as a serene and inviting haven for every member of the family.
The lower level elevates family living and entertaining to an exceptional standard, with a cinematic media room, expansive family lounge with wet bar, nanny or in-law suite, craft room, and abundant storage. A showpiece wine cellar, designed by Rosehill Wine Cellars, awaits completion, offering the future owner the opportunity to curate a truly remarkable collection within a striking architectural setting.
Outdoor living is nothing short of extraordinary, as the west-facing backyard unfolds as a private resort.
A heated saltwater pool, sunken hot tub, expansive patios, gazebo, and formal gardens provide endless opportunities for recreation, relaxation, and entertaining, all enveloped in mature greenery that ensures absolute privacy for families of all ages.
