THE
ACADEMY gets its name from Saint Angela’s Academy that use to occupy
the grounds. This 3.19 acre equestrian estate in Aiken’s historic Winter
Colony area has public gardens, museum, golf course and the 2,100 acre
Hitchcock Woods all within walking distance. The barn and the elegant
main residence have every modern convenience, comfort and luxury that
the most discerning buyer could desire. The Academy is newly
constructed, yet exhibits the craftsmanship of a bygone era.
Lady Banks Roses climb the terrace wall blooming into a sea of pale
yellow. Just inside, the wet bar awaits an eager host. The upstairs
bedrooms are spacious and as well planned as the rest of the house with
immense storage and a cedar closet. The Master Suite’s poolside loggia
is ideal for morning coffee and a quick dip, a long soak in the Spa Tub,
or a relaxing steam in the tile surrounded shower – however you wake-up,
doing so at The Academy means luxury. A mahogany paneled library,
coffered ceilings, a ladies’ withdrawing room with a view of the
stables, and a spacious orangerie overlooking the courtyard swimming
terrace and the heated saltwater pool are but a few of the exquisite
amenities. The high ceilings throughout lend to the open and airy
feeling of welcome that fills The Academy. The Academy may be seen
by appointment only with the listing agent, Jane Page Thompson.
