GUT RENOVATED, FABULOUS ONE-LEVEL LIVING – Private, Curated Sanctuary with Indoor Pool & Japanese Garden – Just 1 Hour North of Manhattan

Step into a world of serenity and timeless design in this exquisitely crafted modern classic—nestled just one hour north of Manhattan. Set on an ultra-private, curated property, this gut-renovated residence offers the rare luxury of true one-level living, bringing ease, flow, and comfort to everyday life.

Privacy reigns supreme here. From the moment you enter the grounds, you’re surrounded by mature landscaping and thoughtful design that shield and soothe. Inside, soaring ceilings, custom millwork, and rare marble slab fireplaces elevate every space with warmth and elegance. The principal bedroom suite is perfectly positioned on the main level, creating an effortless, gracious lifestyle. On the lower level, you’ll find two beautifully appointed guest bedrooms, offering ideal separation and privacy for visitors.

The heart of the home also includes a welcoming, expansive kitchen—the perfect space to gather with friends as you prepare a fabulous dinner. Anchored by a magnificent custom range hood and surrounded by slabs of striking black marble, the kitchen is not only highly functional but visually stunning—a space that feels like it’s been lifted from the pages of Architectural Digest. Every detail has been curated to blend high design with everyday ease.

At the center of the home lies the stunning 60-ft indoor heated lap pool, complete with jets and its own private sauna. In the warmer months, custom windows open wide to transform the space into a breezy, outdoor-feeling retreat. Just beyond, a white-stone entertaining terrace—punctuated by massive boulders—offers a striking setting for al fresco gatherings or peaceful moments of solitude.

Framing nearly every room is one of the home’s most extraordinary features: the rare Japanese garden. Situated on a gentle hilltop, it is a place of stillness and subtle beauty—a quiet landscape shaped by gravel, mulch, and carefully chosen plantings. Designed to be maintenance-free (no weeding, minimal pruning, and easily refreshed with a simple rake), the garden becomes both a sanctuary and a stunning visual anchor throughout the home. Meander along a winding path, cross a solid stone bridge over a hand-built stream, and lose yourself in the sound of a soft breeze moving through mature trees.

Each window in the home has been carefully placed to frame the garden like a piece of art—bringing the outdoors in and offering a meditative view from every space.

Whether you’re hosting guests or embracing solitude, this curated, one-level home delivers an unparalleled lifestyle—blending privacy, elegance, and wellness into one serene retreat. Located just minutes from Bedford Village, Pound Ridge, Katonah, and North Salem, and a short drive from Manhattan, this is a property that truly transcends the ordinary.
