3778 New York 82, Ancram, NY 12502

Set on a hillside of almost 80 acres, this architectural gem looks over a magnificent valley nestled in gentle rolling hills, meadows and woodlands with views to distant mountains. The overall design was conceived by the owner/architect Sam Brody, FAIA, for his family and features a 4,250 SF main home connected to a separate guest suite and balanced by an artist's studio, steps across a landscaped courtyard. A carport at the main entrance provides covered barrier-free entry for both the house and guest suite and is framed by the gardens beyond. Once inside, the brick-floored entry foyer connects to the open plan dining area and kitchen. These rooms have sweeping views to the south and east. A screened-in porch for carefree dining and watching the morning sunrise runs the entire length of the dining room and kitchen with multiple French doors for access. Just off the dining room is the library with walls covered in custom bookshelves and direct access into the landscaped courtyard....
