Experience the epitome of modern country living in this extraordinary estate, masterfully crafted by acclaimed architect Alan Wanzenberg and enhanced by the artistic vision of landscape designer Susan Child. Nestled on over 21 private acres along a scenic country road in Lakeville, this stunning compound perfectly balances sophisticated design with natural beauty.

The main residence, spanning 6,261 square feet, offers five bedrooms and seven baths, while a separate 1,987-square-foot guest house provides three additional bedrooms. The grounds showcase meticulously curated gardens, mature specimen trees, heritage orchards, and timeless stonewalls that create a seamless connection between architecture and landscape.

The main house’s first floor is an entertainer’s paradise, featuring graciously proportioned spaces including a living room, dining room, family room, and screened porch—each warmed by wood-burning fireplaces. The chef’s kitchen and dining areas open to an expansive bluestone terrace, where sweeping pastoral views to the South create an ideal setting for both daytime gatherings and evening stargazing.

Upstairs, the primary suite offers the ultimate retreat with its wood-burning fireplace and luxurious bath. This level also includes an office with fireplace, three ensuite bedrooms, laundry facilities, and a comfortable den. The lower level houses a well-appointed recreational room/gym and a climate-controlled wine cellar.

The property’s amenities extend outdoors with a heated gunite pool (20’x55′) overlooked by the charming guest cottage. A half basketball court provides recreational opportunities, while the classic red barn, equipped with water and electricity, offers ample storage for vehicles and equipment. The estate’s construction by Amber Construction and Rick McCue ensures exceptional quality and minimal maintenance.

This premier location provides easy access to Lakeville Lake, the charming towns of Salisbury, Sharon, and Millerton, rail service to NYC, and prestigious educational institutions including Hotchkiss and Indian Mountain Schools—making it an ideal sanctuary for those seeking refined country living with modern conveniences.
