61 Evarts Hill, 41 | Philipstown
Set upon a private rise within the Hudson Highlands, Evarts Hill is a restored 1929 French Normandy style estate distinguished by its provenance, craftsmanship, and natural and formal landscapes. Encompassing 53.65 acres and bordered by conserved lands of the Hudson Highlands Land Trust, the property offers exceptional privacy and an unspoiled natural setting just 50 miles from New York City.\nThe setting preserves the integrity of one of Garrison's last original country estates. The estate was held by a single family for generations before its recent renewal.\nThe main residence, a stone-and-stucco chateau with a slate roof, draws inspiration from rural Normandy and the Loire Valley. Designed with restraint and classic proportions, it combines formal architecture with a sense of intimacy, and ease suited to its surroundings.\nA three-story rotunda anchors the interior and introduces a classic curved staircase that rises through the center of the home. The floor plan unfolds in a balanced sequence of rooms. Grand entertaining spaces are complemented by more intimate private rooms.\nApproximately 6,200 square feet, which includes six bedrooms/five baths, and one half bath.
