Property Description
Sited deep into a meadow and ringed by woodland, this extraordinary modern home was conceived, designed and constructed with a focus on its relationship with light and nature and the dramatic view of Skytop Tower on the Shawangunk Ridge. The home’s sophisticated simplicity and understated luxury are classic and timeless, and the privacy afforded by its position on its 34 acres is the result of meticulous forethought and planning. Walls of glass literally make the house see-through and allow for passive solar gain during the winter months. Ceilings in the single-story wing soar to 14’6” and this space includes the living and dining areas, kitchen, butler’s pantry, den and powder room, all with polished concrete floors. The entry foyer connects this area to the the two-story bedroom wing, with the second floor dedicated to the primary suite; these spaces feature white oak flooring and there’s geothermal radiant heat throughout the home. Construction materials and technique are of the highest quality and the extreme attention to detail is evident in each and every space. The Stony Kill Brook runs through the woods at the rear of the property and the wide-open areas lend themselves to small-scale farming, additional structures, a pool or a tennis court. Proximity to the village of New Paltz, Mohonk Preserve, Minnewaska State Park, and loads of restaurants, farm stands and cultural venues adds to the unending appeal of this iconic home and property. Also available on 14.5 acres at $2,000,000.
