49 Sky Top Road, Copake, NY 12521 (MLS # 20250477)

Towards the end of Sky Top Road and tucked away at the end of a long driveway sits the Nine-Square House. A dreamy modernist country house, the home is perched amidst dramatic natural topography with magnificent views of the Taconic mountain range. The Home On the ground floor are the double living room, dining area, and kitchen, all flowing into each other and 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/painting studio, 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. The Land & Surrounding Region The nine acres of 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. In an exceptionally peaceful corner of the Hudson Valley, the Nine-Square House is just 20 minutes from Hudson, Great Barrington, and Millerton and two hours from New York City. The home is just a few minutes from the crystal clear Copake Lake, where boat rentals are available, as well as nearby hiking trails, ski slopes, and countless other outdoor offerings. Favorites of the neighborhood include Zinnia's Dinette for the best fried fish in the Hudson Valley, Random Harvest for locally sourced produce, baked goods, and the perfect lunch, Hilltown Hot Pies in the summer for the most sought-after pie in the Berkshires, Little Cat Lodge for the coziest Swiss Alpine dining atmosphere, and so, so many more...
