Luxury rooted in simplicity: an outstanding Madderlake-designed contemporary with 180 degree views of the Hudson River. Perched on 6 acres, high on a hill in Garrison, NY, the residence is revealed via a long scenic driveway that opens to magnificent Hudson River views and a landscaped front garden. Bathed in celestial golden light, the recently upgraded floor-to-ceiling, energy-efficient glass walls and doors and new wrap-around deck offer ever-changing sunsets year-round. With its 10 ft white-washed ceilings, mix of rich woods and polished concrete and epic indoor pool wing, this recently gut-renovated monument to minimalism is regularly used for a long list of celebrity and high fashion shoots. The sun-drenched open-plan main floor redefines flexibility, starting with a chef's kitchen, formerly owned by cookbook author & Vogue food columnist Barbara Kafka. There's a seamless flow between kitchen, dining room with sliding glass doors to the deck, and great room with wood burning fireplace and modernist marble mantel. A main floor primary suite with spa bath, wrapped in glass with ravishing Hudson River views. A sundrenched second bedroom now being used as an office with double-exposure glass walls completes this floor. There are infinite options for leisure and entertainment on the natural-light-filled first floor. An oversized indoor sandstone pool with a wall of glass overlooks the Hudson and enables owners to live the tropical spa life in every season. An adjacent lounge area is the perfect spot for a post-swim gathering. The great room/media room, gleaming with polished terrazzo-style concrete floors, has a woodburning fireplace with custom maple mantel, a spacious guest suite with spa bath and boutique-hotel caliber sauna. An additional bedroom, stylish full bath and office/artist studio/gym flex space complete this level. Even the location is a luxury: minutes to Metro-North, Bear Mt Bridge to Palisades Parkway and 50-minute drive to Manhattan. No shortage of excellent art options & culinary delights between nearby DIA Beacon and Storm King sculpture park, and the recently restored 18th century ever-beloved Bird & Bottle Inn and restaurant.
