BEYOND BOSTON | Garrison, NY 🌲✨
$3,100,000 | 3 bed | 3 full + 1 half bath

From Boston’s historic homes to the Hudson Valley’s most architecturally significant retreats, our network connects you to properties where design and landscape become one.

Set on 28 private acres in the Hudson Highlands, this extraordinary Mid-Century Modern estate was designed in 1961 by architect Reuben Bowden with a philosophy of building with the land rather than upon it. Inspired by the work of Russel Wright at nearby Manitoga, the home was thoughtfully positioned after its original owners spent months observing the property’s sun, seasons, water, and landscape. The result is a remarkable residence of stone, timber, glass, and sculptural forms that feels naturally woven into its surroundings.

Inside, original cork floors, curved board-and-batten walls, expansive windows, custom built-ins, and dramatic stone fireplaces preserve the home’s architectural character, while a thoughtfully redesigned kitchen and retractable walls of glass create an effortless connection to the outdoors. Beyond the residence, a spring-fed pond and brook lead to a secluded 36’ x 68’ pool, pool house inspired by an oriental tea house, and separate studio—all surrounded by protected woodland and parkland.

Just minutes from Garrison, Cold Spring, and Metro-North, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history where privacy, nature, and thoughtful design exist in perfect harmony.
