Architecturally this home seamlessly blends rustic reclaimed beams and floors with a contemporary, airy floor plan. The great room frames the sweeping mountain view through expansive windows, while a floor-to-ceiling stacked-stone fireplace creates a striking focal point. A wet bar and dual french doors to the stone patio make the space ideal for entertaining, with a generous dining room providing additional room for formal gatherings. The spacious cook’s kitchen features marble countertops and a large island, with an adjoining dining area overlooking the stone terrace and spectacular Taconic mountain views. The three-level home offers both first and second floor primary suites, each with a walk-in closet and custom built-ins, along with an office, billiard room and a lower-level media room with built-in bar and wood-burning fireplace. A converted wine cellar, exercise room, studio space and spacious sauna add flexibility for hobbies, recreation and relaxation. Five fireplaces throughout the home provide warmth and character. A rare combination of acreage, views, indoor and outdoor amenities, and exceptional and flowing living spaces. Just a stone's throw away from New England's finest skiing, golf, and fly fishing.
