164 Mount Merino RoadHudson, NY 12534Price: $2,795,000

With drop dead gorgeous, close range views of the Hudson River, this 3BD 2.5BA modernist home was designed by award-winning architect Barry Price. On 6 acres amongst fields of wildflowers, the house sits notched into the hillside above the river, thoughtfully sited to take full advantage of stunning southerly views. The scenery is right out of a Frederic Church painting, the sun setting over the Catskill Mountains, the Hudson River turning shades of pink- an incredible landscape unique to the Hudson River Valley. Inside, the Great Room is two-stories high with a large, impressive sliding door shipped from Germany at its far end. The view is the focal point. The build is impressive, with high end mechanicals, radiant polished concrete floors, a custom kitchen, a media/screening room and a full house generator. There are three bedrooms upstairs including a proper primary suite with spa features. Outside you'll find a hot tub and an outdoor shower, a fire pit and patio, all perfectly placed to take in the views. The neighborhood of Mount Merino is a sought after enclave just south of the heart of town where you'll find world class farm-to-table restaurants. It is is considered highly desirable. It is full of high end, modern homes and is known for its stunning views. 3m to Amtrak, 2h north of NYC.
