This $6.3 Million Custom-Built Hudson Valley Home Is Available for the First Time in 30 Years

Located 50 miles outside Manhattan in North Salem, New York, a particularly charming and bucolic area of Westchester County, this custom-built home was created as an ode to the Hudson Valley.

On the market for the first time in almost three decades, the residence was originally completed in 2002 by award-winning architect Elizabeth Demetriades of the Connecticut-based firm Demetriades + Walker. Listed for just shy of $6.3 million, the sprawling 23-acre estate on Nash Road features six bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and three half-baths across its 7,447 square feet. “As requested by our clients, the home is designed to feel intimate for two occupants while accommodating large family gatherings,” the firm writes on its website.

The architect-designed home’s great room is capped by a dynamic arched roof.

The rural retreat was primarily made from materials such as glass, Western red cedar, mahogany, and stone and was meant to take inspiration from the natural landscape. For example, you’ll find native New York State bluestone used for the flooring and outdoor terraces. Elsewhere, the chimney and stately fireplace are clad in local zinc. Other highlights include the warm, light-filled great room, which is decked out with soaring 14-foot ceilings and large clerestory windows. Nearby, the swanky chef’s kitchen sports a white Calacatta marble island at the center and is complete with top-of-the-line appliances from Gaggenau and Sub-Zero.

Outside, the property is scattered with picturesque walking trails and flower and vegetable gardens that were professionally designed by renowned landscape architect Eric Groft, owner and principal of Oehme, van Sweden. The Washington, D.C.-based firm is responsible for the Native Plant Garden at the New York Botanical Garden and has worked on the American Museum in Bath, England, and the Friendship Garden at the U.S. National Arboretum.

In addition to the main house, the palatial spread also comprises a cozy one-bedroom guest cottage, a heated swimming pool, a Har-Tru tennis court, a detached three-car garage, and a private pond that can be used for ice skating come wintertime.

“This is a country destination for the buyer who insists on superlative quality, panoramic views, and year-round recreation for family and guests,” notes the listing, which is held by agent Angela Kessel of Houlihan Lawrence. “It is a home to be lived in where there are no borders between outside and inside.”
