Antique, iron lions guard the staircase.
Chateau Lyon is first and foremost an un-
common estate. This estate was furnished
by the acclaimed designer Barry Dixon. His
vision combined with that of the owners
has created a beautiful home that com-
bines the charm of time honored Europe
with all the modern conveniences of the
21st century.
The owner’s travels led them to the streets
of Paris, to flea markets and to smaller
towns of the French countryside to amass
fine antiques and accoutrements to design

their divine home. Chateau Lyon is inspired
by the unique architecture of French villas.

A far cry from the metropolitan area of Char-

HAUTEHOMES
Every single aspect of this
home was under great scru-
tiny during the building and
design process. Even the
limestone walls, imported
from France, were hand in-
spected by the owners prior
to installation. Making this
home an obsession, makes
it truly a unique find in the
midst of cookie cutter sub-
urban dwellings.
The Chateau Lyon is not a
house for just a mere home
owner, it is a piece of art
for art collectors. It is much
more than just a place to
hang one’s hat.
Every tile, every door knob,
every railing is a reflection
of the owner’s distinguished
taste and creativity. d
