Description
Set on more than half an acre in Roseland's coveted Holmehill section, this contemporary residence is a study in light, line, and the landscape beyond. Established in 1956, Holmehill remains one of the borough's most desirable enclaves. Floor to ceiling windows wrap nearly every room, framing mature trees like ever-changing artwork and dissolving the line between inside and out. Tongue-and-groove wood ceilings soar above the living room, dining room, and kitchen, warming the open, sun-washed volumes and carrying the eye toward the treetops. A floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace anchors the living room; the dining room, with its own fireplace and wet bar, opens to the brick patio and deck. The open floor plan flows perfectly from room to room inside and out. Nowhere is that connection stronger than in the primary suite, a grown-up tree house wrapped in walls of windows on three sides. A gas fireplace, spa-inspired en suite bath, walk-in closet, and private deck perched in the branches complete the retreat. Two additional bedrooms share a bath, while the light-filled ground level offers a bedroom, full bath, office, and exercise room, living easily as an in-law or au pair suite. A soaring foyer, mudroom, sonos throughout, generous storage, and a whole-house generator round out the offering. Hand-built custom stone retaining walls terrace the property into planted tiers. Close to top-rated schools, shopping and commute to NYC, this is architectural drama made livable.
