About This Home
Architectural Designer's Hudson Valley Sanctuary | New York Times Featured
For the discerning collector of exceptional spaces, this architectural designer-owned residence—featured in The New York Times—represents a rare convergence of contemporary luxury, Scandinavian efficiency, and Hudson Valley tranquility. Anchored on 2.2 acres of complete privacy, a winding driveway delivers you to mountain views and your own creek, its gentle waters providing a constant natural soundtrack from the wraparound porch.
Inside, soaring cathedral ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and strategically placed skylights dissolve boundaries between indoors and out, while solid white oak flows throughout in custom wide-planked floors. Bespoke millwork turns every functional element into a design statement. The chef's kitchen is anchored by a built-in Wolf gas range and oven, statement island, and custom cabinetry, all paired with Italian luxury finishes, a new Bosch dishwasher, and premium appliances including a Samsung washer/dryer and brand new instant water heater. Configured as a refined two-bedroom retreat plus a versatile loft (currently a Pilates studio) offers seamless potential for a third bedroom or flex space. Bathrooms, including the skylit master suite, are finished with designer Antonio Lupi fixtures that transform daily rituals into spa-like experiences. A RAIS wood-burning stove, plaster walls, and metal roof blend warmth, durability, and style, while whole-home water filtration ensures comfort at every level.
Equally intentional outdoors, the property invites entertaining and retreat: an Argentinian Parilla grill defines the outdoor kitchen, a built-in fire pit anchors evenings under the stars, and an outdoor shower brings spa sensibilities into nature.
Perfectly situated 30 minutes from Woodstock, Hudson, and Hunter, with easy access to Saugerties, Catskill, Athens, and Kingston—yet under two hours from the George Washington Bridge—this creek-side sanctuary balances total seclusion with cultural connectivity.
