Welcome to Post Hill, a captivating retreat in the heart of the Hudson Valley where history and modern luxury dovetail seamlessly. This 11-acre estate, just 15 minutes from Hudson and two hours from Manhattan, offers a rare chance to own a piece of architectural heritage lovingly maintained by three dedicated owners. The story of this exceptional property began in the 1980s when an 1880s barn was discovered in Pennsylvania. Recognizing the beauty and craftsmanship of the structure, its original stewards meticulously disassembled, transported, and reassembled the barn upon a bucolic parcel in southern Columbia County, NY. It was then expanded with additional bedrooms and modern amenities, and enhanced with reclaimed architectural elements dating back to the 1700s, including windows and wooden paneling from a 1780s English manor, two Adam-style fireplaces, and antique Delft tiles from 1760. Over 5000 reclaimed bricks from a 19th-century factory in Hudson pave the first floor, providing a cool environment in summer and warmth in winter. The current owners equipped the home with smart home technology and installed solar panels that dramatically reduce heating and cooling costs. The central living room boasts 40-foot high ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and a second-story library. The primary suite features a vaulted ceiling with hand-hewn beams, a seating area, and an en-suite bath with a bespoke copper soaking tub and walk-in shower. The downstairs bedroom showcases 18th-century English manor details, while a silo has been transformed into an elegant entrance with a spiral stair leading to a second-floor office and ensuite bedroom. The well-appointed brick kitchen, equipped with Bosch appliances, adjoins the spacious dining and living areas, making it ideal for entertaining. Manicured gardens with specimen plantings surround the home, providing a tranquil setting for outdoor activities. Spend chilly evenings around the fire pit, enjoy cocktails on the stone patio, or serve a summer meal in the outdoor screened-in dining room. Explore the grounds, including remnants of an 18th-century post house, or relax by the serene pond⁠ that hugs the forest's edge⁠.

Towards the end of Sky Top Road and tucked away at the end of a long driveway sits The Nine-Square House. A modernist masterpiece, the home is perched amidst dramatic natural topography with magnificent views of the Taconic Hills. The Nine-Square House was born of a several-year-long collaboration between a multi-disciplinary artist/designer and an esteemed architect. The result is an immensely livable and sustainable 3,900 square-foot home that carefully balances the relationship between its well thought out interiors and the surrounding wooded landscapes and impressive open views of multiple mountain ranges. Every feature of the home was conceived to be both functional and pleasing to the eye; after all, the team behind the house spent more than two years planning a design that addressed every conceivable ergonomic and environmental question. The nine-square philosophy of living is very much felt in the distribution of spaces - on the main floor, the double living room, dining area, and kitchen all flow into each other and are anchored by a marble fireplace and three large glass doors opening to the exterior terrace with a breathtaking view. The kitchen features Danish-designed Reform cabinetry, Bardiglio marble, and Fisher Paykel appliances. An office, a washroom, a dry bar, and a generously proportioned laundry room complete the main level. The central architectural piece of the home is the solid white oak staircase leading up to the second floor. The four bedrooms upstairs, though spacious, are much more private and intimate, each with large windows on two sides, communing with the serene and quiet landscape outside. The two sizable bathrooms have dedicated shower rooms and freestanding soaking tubs with panoramic views. The expansive landing of this level has a reading room at one end and a sitting area at the other. Distinguishing features of the Nine-Square House include high energy efficiency due to insulation exceeding all current standards, multi-zone central AC, radiant heated floors, solid 200 lb interior doors, satin nickel Kohler fixtures, cast iron sinks, and solid forged and machined brass and satin nickel door hardware. An expansive floor plan and extensive technical solutions are met with human-scale rooms, creating an abundantly peaceful and welcoming environment. The land around the house, perfect as it is, has been touched as little as possible. There are wooded and open areas, with meandering walking paths trailing through the property. The minimal clearing around the house has been planted with native plants, allowing ferns and forest growth to come back up to the building over time. The Nine-Square House is just 20 minutes from Hudson, Great Barrington, and Millerton and two hours from New York City.

L-Wing is a contemporary masterpiece that pays homage to the agrarian roots of the Hudson Valley surrounding it, a true modernist take on the archetypal farmstead. A New York based talented architect duo, after searching for several years for the perfect piece of land, finally settled on this exceptional property just minutes from Germantown, after which they started on an over three-year journey of realizing their most personal and important project yet. Built to the most exacting standards, L-Wing is a perfect example of the integral relationship between architecture and nature, where the surrounding climate, the landscape of the site, and the rural views critically informed every architectural and design decision. The eminently warm and peaceful residence seamlessly integrates Japanese and Scandinavian aesthetics with the organic architectural principles of the local vernacular of barns and sheds. The lengthy conceptualization process is evident in the way each window frames a 'scene' within the surrounding landscape, the clever positioning of private versus shared spaces that play on the natural movement of light throughout the house, and the sensoriality of the primary materials used - clear cedar tongue and groove siding, interior glulam beams of impressive proportions, white oak flooring, Brazillian-imported leather-finish Quartizite, and the delicate use of polished concrete. The four-bedroom, five-bath, 4,600 square-foot home sits at the end of a long driveway amid over twelve lush acres, offering complete and total privacy. The expansive living and dining room space is anchored by a fireplace with a custom designed concrete hearth and a fabricated metal chimney in the center. Large floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides flood the room with natural light throughout the day. The impeccably envisioned kitchen, with custom rift oak cabinetry and professional-grade appliances, overlooks the north side of the grounds. Off the kitchen lies the only part of the interior where all four levels are on display in one lens - building up from the lower level, more intimate family room, all the way to the reading nook and walkway at the top, suspended from the immense interior beams. The private wing of the residence hosts three bedrooms and three baths on the upper level, with a fourth, tucked-away guest bedroom suite on the lower level. The landscape is quintessential Hudson Valley, and the views are sweeping. The interior blends seamlessly with the exterior by way of a cedar deck that wraps around almost the entirety of the home, a Japanese Karesansui-inspired garden, several exterior gathering spaces for dining and entertaining, and for the more adventurous, multiple paths that extend into the 'wilder' part of the grounds. L-Wing finds its home in the beautiful surroundings of Germantown and is only 10 minutes from Tivoli, 20 minutes from Hudson, Rhinebeck, and two Amtrak stations, and two hours from New York City.
