Welcome to the Castle in the Sky—a truly unique architectural masterpiece nestled in the heart of the Hudson Valley. This extraordinary estate offers 5,000 square feet of refined interior living space and expands to over 11,000 square feet when including the outdoor living areas, covered terraces, balconies, barn, and workshop. A harmonious blend of modern sophistication and timeless elegance, this property stands as a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and enduring artistry. Perched on more than 46 private acres, this secluded retreat commands breathtaking views of Mohonk Mountain and the Catskills. The estate seamlessly integrates luxury, nature, and adventure, creating an unparalleled living experience. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings adorned with massive timber beams—harvested directly from the land—create a warm yet majestic ambiance. Expansive windows frame stunning vistas, while wide-plank radiant-heated floors and a custom double-sided stone fireplace combine comfort with elegance. The residence features five spacious bedrooms and four and a half luxurious bathrooms, all showcasing impeccable craftsmanship. The two-story great room, a sophisticated dining area with bay window views, and a gourmet kitchen designed for entertaining highlight the home's exceptional character. Adding to its uniqueness, two enchanting castle turrets house spiral staircases leading to elevated observation decks, offering panoramic views of the Hudson Valley. A 200-foot illuminated underground bluestone tunnel connects the main residence to a separate 4,000-square-foot barn. Fully equipped with electricity, water, and radiant heat, the barn offers limitless possibilities—whether for showcasing high-end collector cars, establishing a tranquil yoga studio, or creating your dream space. The estate's thoughtful design extends to its enchanting outdoor living areas. Each covered terrace and balcony incorporates advanced water-capturing and rerouting systems, ensuring dry and comfortable spaces year-round. Sliding doors lead to an expansive bluestone terrace featuring a heated Diamond Bright Gunite pool and a luxurious outdoor kitchen—ideal for entertaining or relaxing. Nearby, a bluestone spa and a man-made pond designed for swimming and fishing enhance this private sanctuary's allure. Originally built in 1994, this estate is the culmination of over a decade of intentional design and expert craftsmanship. Every element—from its stately façade to its serene surroundings—reflects an unwavering commitment to excellence. The Castle in the Sky is more than a home—it's a legacy, a lifestyle, and an invitation to live surrounded by elegance, tranquility, and wonder.
