Welcome to Cedar House, a modern compound that includes a 4,200 sq ft main house and a 2,750 sq ft guest house nestled on 5.1 evergreen acres in Kerhonkson, one of the most sought after hamlets in the Hudson Valley/Catskills. The serene landscape backdrops the true magic that lies at Cedar House. As you enter the private drive, a landscaped pond welcomes you to this oasis and bluestone walkways welcome you to explore.
The Main House: A substantial 4-bedroom residence with 3 full and 2 half bathrooms. The heart of the home—an open concept living space with cathedral ceilings—commands your attention with beautiful, hardwood white oak floors and a wall of windows featuring a double-sided fireplace that can be seen both inside and outside of the home. The chef's kitchen is well-appointed with top of the line appliances: a Wolf range and hood, Sub-Zero refrigerator and waterfall island. A butler's pantry with sink and wine storage is steps away. Down the hall, a junior primary with en suite bath and step in closet plus 2 additional bedrooms and full bathroom. Ascend the floating staircase, to the 1,100 sq ft primary suite—a breathtaking space with cathedral ceilings, wood paneling, natural basalt tiled gas fireplace, and exposures in every direction. The Califorian king size bedroom features dual walk-in closets with laundry plus a balcony and an incredible spa-like ensuite bath complete with hand hewn large format porcelain tile, an oversized soaking tub, and waterfall shower. The lowest level of the home is designed to entertain with a full wet bar, theater room, living room, wine storage, laundry room, and powder room.
The Guest House: A charming 3-bedroom, 1- bathroom home with separate laundry, is a completely repurposed structure that will provide a comfortable and private space for anyone you choose to share this compound with. The third bedroom, a loft space on the second level, is finished with a balcony that overlooks the property. The bold bathroom is complete with a standup shower and soaking tub. The climate controlled 3-car garage is accessible through the guest house, it is EV-ready and has an independent oversized bay that can be used for oversized vehicles or a boat. A third structure, currently staged as a gym, is equipped with an infrared sauna, inviting you to maintain your wellness routine without leaving the comfort of home.
Adding to the allure of this property, the grounds feature a tranquil pond, perfect for moments of reflection and leisurely strolls. This outdoor oasis provides endless opportunities for activities, from gardening to hosting summer barbecues. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat or a place to entertain family and friends, Cedar House offers the best of both worlds. (And there's even a spot already scoped out for a pool and pool house, which the builder could add at an additional cost.)
Under 100 miles to NYC, this property is minutes away from thousands of acres of protected land to hike, bike, stroll, or cross-country ski on—Minnewaska State Park, Mohonk Preserve, and the Vernooy Kills Waterfall area. The member club, restaurant, and spa at Inness; Ravenwood (cafe and art/design shop); Harana Market (James Beard-nominated Filipino food); Arrowood Farms (craft beer and food); Westwind Orchard (picturesque pizza and cider); Mill and Main (cafe and restaurant); Flying Goose Tavern (with daily food popups) give you plenty of great options to eat and drink within a few miles.
