Nestled within 58 sprawling acres, this property lies just an hour north of the vibrant heartbeat of New York City, in the midst of horse country. As your vehicle navigates the gravel driveway, the city's frenetic pace is instantly left behind, replaced by a sense of tranquility.
The project focused on an 8,000 square foot new build residence, complemented by an original working horse barn, jumping arena, and charming guest cottage.
The client envisioned a space where sophistication seamlessly meets comfort. The design embraces a cool palette and embodies a unique fusion of contemporary style with subtle nods of Equine and Japanese aesthetics, striking a perfect balance between elegance and timeless allure.
