Located in a quiet corner of the Catskills bordered by the Neversink River, this property includes a 6000 square foot house surrounded by wilderness. The house, designed by New York architect Peter Pennoyer, was inspired by early 20th Century Swedish farmhouses. Approaching the house, one sees how the design fits into the mountain.

The second or living floor is entered through a door hidden under the porte cochere. Above the porte cochere is a studio which bridges to the hill and connects to the third floor bedrooms and library. Below, the first floor which opens to the meadow and views of the river valley, provides for the garden room and storage. The house is clad in pine board and batten with window surrounds of mahogany. The cedar shake roof is lined with copper gutters which match the copper bas-relief swags over the windows.

On the main floor, all the rooms are strung out along a diagonal hallway so that every one faces the view. Upon entering, a two story circular room rises to the library on the upper floor towards a lantern-like window that lets light filter down through the hallways. This room sets the tone of high ceilings, walls sheathed in yellow pine and mahogany trimmed windows throughout the home. The kitchen is large with electric appliances, pantry and pass-through to the living/dining room. A wall of windows makes a great eat-in space. Stepping down into the living/dining room, the vaulted ceiling, fireplace and windows are spectacular. There is room for a large dining table along one side of the room. Floor to ceiling French doors open to a gabled porch which leads to an enclosed terrace garden.

Moving from the center rotunda, stairs go down to the garden room or up to the circular library, studio and bedrooms. The hallway hides closets and a half bath. At the opposite end of the main floor is the large master bedroom suite with its own full bath. Upstairs the round inner balcony in the library is the center of attention. Across the hall, the beautiful studio with three sides of windows bridges the driveway below. It is perfect for a family room, artist studio or guest bedroom with access to the outside. From the outside its neo-classical Doric columns give a temple-like feel to the room.

A large bedroom which mirrors the downstairs master suite has its own full bath and walk-in closets. The other two bedrooms share a bath with double sinks with a tub and shower. The larger of the two is big enough for a “family” with two beds fitting comfortably.

On the lower floor the large garden room opens to the outside. There are huge storage areas that could be finished for exercise rooms, etc. The mechanical room contains two oil furnaces for forced hot air heat, oil heated hot water, two oil tanks and a generator set-up for power outages. There is a circulating ventilation system. A drilled 420 foot well provides water to the house.

This is a home architecturally sensitive to its surroundings, designed to take in the views of the meadows and forests and built as a “dream house” for the owners and their family.
