Kenneth Cole, the influential designer known for his extensive range of footwear, clothing, and accessories, has built a substantial empire valued at over $1 billion. His personal fortune is estimated to exceed $100 million.
Cole's luxurious seven-bedroom mansion in Purchase, NY, which he acquired for $2.8 million in 1991, has been a cherished family residence for decades. Now, with his children having moved on, Cole has decided to sell the property. The estate, described as one of New York's premier residences, is listed at a striking $22 million.
Set on a gated 14-acre lot, the estate boasts breathtaking views of meticulously maintained gardens. The three-story home features an array of amenities, including three distinct office spaces.
Inside, the property is adorned with a soothing color scheme of brown and white, creating a serene atmosphere. The entrance hall opens to a tastefully designed living room, which leads to a splendid veranda offering panoramic views of the verdant grounds.
The expansive outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with rolling lawns, blooming perennials, a saltwater pool, a tennis court, a putting green, and a koi pond. A jogging path meanders around the property, enhancing its appeal for outdoor enthusiasts.

The 12,000-square-foot residence includes a grand dining room that can host up to 80 guests, multiple fireplaces, and a playroom situated on the third floor. The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring dual La Cornue ranges, a massive wood island with seating, and ample cabinetry.
The primary suite is a retreat in itself, complete with double walk-in closets, luxurious en suite bathrooms, and private balconies. The property also includes a two-car garage, a garage for a golf cart, and a detached four-car garage with an adjoining carport.
Located about an hour north of Manhattan in Westchester County, near the Connecticut border, this home also holds cinematic significance as the filming location for the 1969 film "Goodbye, Columbus."
