CHATEAU AMOUR - Where every sunset tells a love story... Need privacy? Look no further! Surrounded by Clausland Mountain’s vast 532-acre nature preserve, this impeccably rebuilt 2007 custom estate at 172 Clausland Mountain Road blends wild beauty and refined luxury with 8, 000 SF of finished living space. While you feel a world’s apart in your own 5.5 acre sanctuary, it’s hard to imagine you are only 30 minutes from NYC and less than 10 minutes to the majestic Hudson River and the river town villages of Nyack & Piermont, all within the award-winning South Orangetown School District. A gated tree-lined driveway welcomes you to a 17-room masterpiece featuring four ensuite bedrooms, seven bathrooms and six fireplaces for a warm, yet regal ambiance. The centerpiece is an expansive kitchen with a towering fireplace, high-end appliances and a 10-foot island, seamlessly extending to granite patios, royal gardens and a fully equipped outdoor chef’s kitchen with fireplace, enclosed by Mediterranean-style balusters and secure gates. The grounds include a gated Bonsai garden and koi pond with cascading waterfalls that glimmer under the stars. For leisure and entertaining, enjoy the the panoramic nature views from bountiful patios, including a heated saltwater pool, outdoor fireplace and two hot tubs. If your own slice of heaven isn’t enough, with plenty of room for vegetable gardens, vineyard vines, orchards, livestock, tennis court, and even a helicopter pad, bask in the wild through private trails into Clausland Mountain State Park, where endless exploration awaits. The entire setting is like living in a 360 degree perpetual mural that changes by the season; where your view shifts from fall foliage out of a Van Gogh painting, to a Monet winter wonderland. Abutting the property is a magical natural pond, the perfect backdrop for a picnic, swing or an ice skating haven in the winter. Inside, the list goes on and the house doesn’t skip a beat, from first floor bedroom, wine cellar, butler’s pantry, private office with extensive millwork, meditation room, smart home systems controlled by phone and a finished basement with theater and bar that leads directly to the lush grounds. The separate primary suite wing features vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, wet bar, walk-in closet and a balcony with private hot tub. If the house is too much to explore on foot, take advantage of the elevator which goes to every floor, warm your feet on the radiant heated floors and have the piece of mind your sports cars will enjoy the heated three-car garage. Minutes from the Hudson River and the charming villages of Piermont and Nyack, this property combines secluded living with everyday convenience. Whether you are looking to host or hideaway, 172 Clausland Mountain Road is where art, nature and architecture converge in romance...
