Blairsden is the mansion this year and it is spectacular. Recently purchased for a mere $4 million, it was such a treat to get to see two floors of this five floor private home. Designed and constructed between 1897 and 1903, this 62,000 - square-foot Louis XIV chateau-style mansion was the masterpiece of renowned architecture firm Carrère and Hastings. If you are in the New York City met area, Mansion in May is worth seeing.
