This extraordinary newly built home was created with the utmost attention to design, environment, sustainability, and energy efficiency. Based upon the tenets of renowned architect and design theorist, Christopher Alexander (A Pattern Language, A Timeless Way of Building), the rooms are laid out in accordance with a gradient of intimacy, the landscape, and the sun's trajectory. Architectural elements and materials throughout the house are based on Alexander's in-depth study of what makes people feel good. Natural light floods each room. Organic patterns, sculptural shapes, and natural materials result in a sense of calm and timelessness. The straw bale construction, aside from its practical advantages as a building material, creates thick walls which provide for deep windows, window seats and ledges for taking in the natural surroundings. Many unique features abound, such as rounded corners and arches, barrel ceilings, secret door bookcases, a spiral staircase, box bed niches, a Japanese Ofuro soaking tub, to name a handful. Handmade tiles and high end appliances in the kitchen. This is truly an oasis for creatives and nature lovers, with an artist studio, a second floor deck and office, and a potting and pottery shed. Situated on 34.5 acres complete with pond and protected wetlands, the property is a private sanctuary for people and wildlife to commune in harmony. Hiking, rock climbing, swimming holes, skiing, restaurants, shops, and the arts are all within an easy distance. Just 15 minutes to the New Paltz campus and a short drive to the charming towns of Kingston, Saugherties and Woodstock, yet only 80 minutes from the George Washington Bridge. This is a unique opportunity to own a truly inspired property that adheres to the highest standards of design and construction.
