North Field House is a tailored mix of elegant modern forms integrated with the exterior spaces, which makes this architecturally designed home truly exceptional. The residence is made up of two opposing volumes: a three-story wing oriented toward the Catskill Mountain view and a single-story double-height wing oriented toward the rear garden and the field beyond. In the winter, there is a view of the Roeliff Jansen Kill, a major tributary of the Hudson River. Much thought was put into the siting, with an approach that follows the tree line leading to a landscaped forecourt. The main living spaces are sequenced horizontally, with the living room facing west toward the mountains and a spacious country kitchen opening out to an east-facing terrace. Secondary bedrooms are on the main floor. A stair leads up to the second-floor primary bedroom suite with spectacular views of the Catskills. A walk-out lower level can be configured as a recreation room, an office or studio space. Exterior living space offers options for upgrades, including a pool and a guest house studio. North Field site is approached through a monumental stone gate formed by the abutments of a bygone 19th century railway bridge, from where the driveway follows the path of the original former dairy farm track. The residence will be privately sited perpendicular to the slope, bisecting the field to create a rear garden to the East. This rural escape is only 7.5 miles to Red Hook, 13 miles to Rhinebeck and 16 miles to Hudson.
