The villa’s grander façade
faces the lake, rather than
the street, a reminder of a
time when wealthy visitors
would have traveled up the
North Shore by boat or
yacht to dock at the edge of
the Pike’s property. The lawn
leading up from the lakefront
is lined with classical
sculptures
reminiscent
of ancient Rome. There
are also lush, beautifully
landscaped gardens next to
the columned loggia. The
vibrant, California-inspired
outdoor furniture brings
this old world estate into the
modern era.
