Public Remarks: This is a rare opportunity to own one of the most unique properties in Ulster County. Exquisitely designed inside and out, this home offers a dome of zen privacy that allows you to escape the outside world. Enter the 65 acres of meadows and woodlands through a hand-forged electric gate into a sanctuary just 10 minutes from Uptown Kingston. This sun-drenched mid-century home has been completely reimagined from the ground up with no detail of design or comfort left unturned. A wall of sliding glass doors in the the living room provides sweeping views across the elegantly designed south landscape with custom-built rolling stone walls unequaled in a private residence. The living room’s gas fireplace keeps the white interiors pristine while still providing the loft-like common space with the comfort of a constant flame at the click of a button. In-wall and ceiling speakers connect to your sound system to drench the space with music. Floor length white Bali blinds drape all the windows and doors to softly diffuse sunlight while adding privacy. Materials and design elements are consistent throughout the home providing a soothing sense of unity and tranquility. The open kitchen with bleached, wide-plank floors is a cook’s dream with brilliant white cabinets, double Dacor ovens and a Jenn Air down-draft cooktop. The dining room comfortably seats twelve and has its own wall of sliding glass doors looking west to the pool below and up into the forest. Wrapping around the back of the house is an extensive, multi-level patio with gas fire pits and a four season outdoor kitchen that rivals most indoor kitchens for size and convenience. The main gas BBQ grill is fueled by the propane tank that feeds the house so there’s never a need to change a portable tank or run out of fuel. The same propane tank fuels the Kohler Generator that keeps the house, pool and spa powered, lit and comfortable should a power lapse occur. And for those days when we return to larger-scale entertaining, the outdoor kitchen is also the perfect workstation for a catering company, offering private access to the driveway so the transport of food and gear would be invisible whether entertaining inside or out. Driveway annunciators line both the main and the utility driveways so no one enters the property without a warning chime. The house is also equipped with a remote and key coded alarm system with exterior surface-mounted security cameras along with an E-ZPass driveway camera to spot check license plates. While all of the bedrooms boast cathedral ceilings and modern propeller-styled fans, the two main suites also have oversized sliding glass doors to step onto the patio decks without having to go through the common areas. Access from the primary bedroom is down a spiral staircase that leads to a six person hot tub. For continuous access during winter snow the decking around the hot tub and kitchen has integrated heat coils so there’s never a need to shovel. The design goal was a full integration between indoors and out. Almost every room in the house has direct access to the outside providing a haven that embraces the Hudson Valley outdoors year-round. From the back decks, follow the hill down the winding stairs to the heated, free-form, salt water pool. For night time relaxing, the entire yard is illuminated with custom-designed low-voltage LED path, posts, spot and bistro lighting. And for those days when you just don’t want to leave the pool area there is a second outdoor kitchen and gas grill steps away that is fueled by a separate in-ground propane tank which also ignites the eight foot custom stone fire pit overlooking the pool.
