Iconic fashion designer Marc Ecko is selling his New Jersey mansion. The expansive estate located in Bernardsville has just been decreased by $3 million for a listing price of $15 million.

Set on 32 acres, the 20,000-square-foot home was first listed in late 2014. Named the Stronghold by locals, the palatial brownstone is unique with a traditional look and modern accents.

Luxury touches like painted frescoes seen through circular openings in the upper level, golden ceilings with fleur-de-lis accents, and beautiful wood floors in a herringbone pattern give the home its own personality.

Once owned by architect George Browne Post and his wife, the one-of-a-kind property features incredible amenities like a full basketball court and a three-story observatory, in addition to sprawling orchards, farms, and gardens.

The designer who founded his T-shirt company in 1993 found quick success, eventually going on to create a youth culture magazine in 2002.
