Property Description
Art Collector?s Private retreat situated on 3 acres and focused on a formal Japanese garden and spring-fed Koi Pond. Nestled in a serene glade between Middletown and Gradyville Roads and set back from both is a perfect example of architectural prowess. This exceptional residence stands as a testament to the visionary expertise of award winning architect, Wesley Wei for which he won the AIA Gold award. Crafted from a blend of old stone, poured concrete, and cedar wood, the home is a masterful fusion of materials, showcasing a seamless integration with its natural surroundings. The home is comprised of an original 700sf pitched roof farmhouse which connects to the kitchen, a small, narrow volume floating on a concrete plinth and which counterbalances a voluminous living room, gallery space where the main bedroom floats above affording a sweeping view of your own private formal Japanese manicured garden and pond. Corten Steel, lead coated copper, and western cedar clad the new additions, each with their own identity and style while respecting the simplified form of the original structure. Enter the home through a custom steel full swing door into an intimate foyer. This space gives way to an 18? high gallery space opening to the main living room. To the left, the dining room inhabits the former farmhouse with reclaimed pine flooring and an original fireplace. The small kitchen extension projects from the dining room and boasts top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, including a Subzero refrigerator effortlessly blending with the pristine Bulthaup cabinetry. Each of the spaces is joined together by steel and glass enclosures creating window bridges affording views of the pond and surrounding property. A minimalist steel staircase ascends to the second floor primary suite, a wide open space floating above the living room. The loft-like bedroom is open to the gallery and living room below and affords views of the pond in front. In the full bathroom, intricate mosaic details adorn the glass enclosed shower, set against a backdrop of rich dark slate walls. The bathroom is flanked by two smaller rooms which could be bedrooms, the last owner used them as office and walk-in closet. There is an artesian well below the farmhouse portion which provides all the home?s water needs. Completing the ensemble of buildings is a separate four-car garage with a motorcycle lift, featuring an artist's studio above and providing a creative sanctuary for inspired endeavors. This residence is your creative retreat which transcends the ordinary, offering a harmonious blend of artful design and serene living.
