Description

Perched on a gentle rise along a private road just ten minutes from Rhinebeck Village, this 5-bedroom custom Craftsman estate—designed by a renowned local architect—seamlessly blends dramatic Art Deco–inspired style with modern comforts. Wide oak floors, premium windows and doors, and brass hardware set the tone, while a suite of advanced systems make the home energy-efficient and off-grid ready. Luxuries like an indoor lap pool, hot tub, steam shower, and jetted tub elevate daily living into a retreat.The 4, 566-square-foot main residence is built of striking post-and-beam construction, with soaring ceilings that create a bright, lodge-like atmosphere. At its center, a monumental bluestone fireplace anchors sunlit living and dining spaces framed by double-height windows and exposed beams. The chef’s kitchen is both refined and functional, featuring a 6-burner Wolf stove, Sub-Zero double refrigerator, warming drawer, wine fridge, pot filler, and custom cabinetry set against hand-stamped tile floors.The layout flows naturally: a main-floor guest suite with en-suite bath, a media room adaptable as an office or playroom, a Brazilian walnut sunroom housing the swim spa and hot tub, and an expansive rear deck of the same hardwood. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a serene sanctuary with a steam shower, jetted tub, walk-in and reach-in closets, and abundant natural light. This level also includes another en-suite bedroom, a cozy custom sitting area with built-ins, and a mezzanine library complete with oak shelving and a reading nook.The walkout lower level provides a flexible living area with a fourth bedroom and full bath—ideal for in-laws, an office, or even conversion to a fully self-contained unit with the addition of a service kitchen. A laundry room with a two-story chute, a walk-in pantry, and utility spaces round out the floor. The home has been impeccably maintained and enhanced with thoughtful upgrades: solar panels, high-efficiency heat pumps supported by a premium oil furnace, a backup generator, and a central-station alarm system.Complementing the main house is a matching 1, 344-square-foot two-car garage with keypad entry. Above it, a legal 672-square-foot accessory dwelling unit—with kitchenette, full bath, HVAC, and a private deck—currently serves as a professional music studio but could easily transform into a guest suite or income-producing rental. Outdoors, five landscaped acres feature perennial gardens, a koi pond, and hand-laid stonework, creating a deeply peaceful setting. This is more than a home; it’s a property with soul—and an exceptional rarity in today’s market.
