Property Description

CEDAR HILL - Architectural Country Living at its Finest - is the embodiment of 21st-century modern luxury. Elevated on 10 private acres with sweeping mountain views, a gracious mix of open and wooded landscape, a serene spring-fed lily pond, and an organic vegetable garden, this newly expanded and reimagined six-bedroom home is set in Old Chatham, one of the most coveted corners of New York’s historic Hudson Valley. The home engages seamlessly with its natural surroundings through walls of glass that draw in the changing seasons - from spring’s first blooms and summer’s golden light to autumn’s rich palette and the quiet beauty of snow-covered peaks. Abundant natural light and warm finishes create interiors that balance architectural precision with a sense of comfort and ease. The grounds include a 50-foot heated in-ground Gunite salt-water pool and spa, surrounded by expansive bluestone patios. Thoughtfully positioned just beyond, a cedar-clad spa pavilion - with sauna and custom sleek stainless hot tub - is connected to the house by a breezeway, creates a natural extension of the home while preserving a sense of privacy. Southern light fills this entire setting throughout the day, enhancing both the interiors and outdoor living spaces. A deco-turf night-lit tennis court built by a premier tennis contractor in the Berkshires complete the private, resort-like atmosphere, ideal for restorative retreats, entertaining, or quiet relaxation. The formal living room, with soaring 22-foot ceilings, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace flows effortlessly into a gracious dining area, an open kitchen and butler’s pantry and a secondary gathering room with its own wood-burning fireplace. A game and media room opens directly to the pool terrace, while the main level also offers a first-floor bedroom, full plus half- bath, along with a beautifully designed mudroom with breezeway access. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, with glass doors opening to a deck that captures mountain vistas with south and west exposures. Four additional bedrooms, bathroom, a flexible-use room with grand terrace, and a second laundry provide ample space for guests, work and wellness. The property, rebuilt and expanded over a multi-year renovation, was completed in 2023. Designed for year-round, sustainable modern living. Solar power, radiant heated interiors, a three-car heated garage, and multiple EV charging stations ensure comfort and efficiency in every season. Underground utilities further enhance the natural setting. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley and the Berkshires, Cedar Hill offers access to hiking, skiing, farm-to-table dining, and cultural destinations - while remaining a peaceful retreat to relax and recharge.
