Custom designed in 1969 by a renowned Yale architect DAVID SELLERS for the current owners, this incredible house has been thoughtfully structured to take full advantage of its secluded location in the woods of the Sleeping Giant State Park, and to exist in harmony with the landscape while taking full advantage of natural light and and views of nature. Expansive sloping roof lines, clad in cedar shingles, seamlessly flow and blend with the surroundings. This multi-level house reveals itself gently as you enter. Designed for open feel & flow, each room has been defined to serve a specific function and provide privacy when needed - a rare combination in a Contemporary design. Intimate entry foyer opens to a sunken Family Room w/wood-burning Fireplace & oversized windows providing indirect natural light. On the opposite side of the entry Foyer is Formal Living Room w/incredible volume and airiness, and wall of glass leading to a balcony. Formal Dining Room has 2 large corner picture windows bringing outdoor in. Amazing, one of a kind (and now the only one in existence) Kitchen was designed by another Yale architect, late TOM LUCKEY, an inventor of LUCKEY CLIMBERS. The use of natural materials like teak, make this kitchen stand out: teak counter blends into a carved sink; cabinets and drawers designed with a playful sense - a true one-of-a-kind. The upstairs has 4 BRs and 2 Baths, including Primary BR w/en-suite and balcony. SEE ADDITIONAL REMARKS FOR MORE INFO:
