The distinctive home rests on a 40 acre meadow, complete with views of the nearby farms of Millbrook, NY. The clients desired a house with a strong presence among its bucolic surroundings, which the design of Daniel Contelmo Architects succeeded in accomplishing. The silhouette of strong rooflines is accentuated by the striking verticality of the chimneys. The home was sensitively laid out for weekend gatherings; a large family congregates on the main floor to enjoy each other during the day, while they retreat at night to the privacy of five master bedroom suites on the second floor.
