A rare bird. AIA award winning modern architecture with big views and total privacy in prestigious South Kent. Designed by Tomas Rossant of Ennead Architects and Allee Design, the clean aesthetic partners easily with the natural landscape offering ” an intimate and immediate relationship with the outdoors”. Serene and sophisticated, yet laid back and livable, the semi- open floor plan has an easy flow with each area leading organically to the next. The perfect size, there are no extraneous spaces to heat or cool or clean. Totally custom, the extraordinary details include entire roofs crafted of standing seam copper, yacht quality cabinetry, shed roof design to let in maximum natural light, oversized glass door walls opening to the stress- reducing views, a covetable kitchen built not ” for show” but for good cooking and good times, a main floor master with hers and his baths and walk-in closets, a library/ office with private entrance, 4 nicely separated bedrooms each with bath, radiant heat set anywhere from your Smart Phone, a huge screened porch opening to a dining terrace European style – under the trees and under the stars.
Like an Hermes saddle, the quality of this house whispers the simple luxury of beautiful lines, clean, unfussy finishes and superb materials. Near town, Metro North, golf and an organic farmstand. This is a property for the buyer who knows the difference.
