7-time AIA award winning architect Matthew Bialecki designed this home to be his personal residence. This masterpiece featuring natural organic materials, and constructed with green building strategies, is considered by architects to be one of the finest homes in the Hudson Valley. This stunning earth-bermed sustainable house combines energy efficiency with an awe-inspiring fusion of architecture and landscape. Surrounded by over 400 acres of protected forest and farmland, it offers both privacy and tranquility. Inside the home is a work of art that showcases mid-century glass architecture, fine Asian woodworking, locally hand-hewn oak timber beams, floor to ceiling windows, and board-formed concrete retaining wall. This home epitomizes the ultimate relaxation experience. Cozy up in front of one the three magnificent fireplaces, rest outside listening to the sounds of the rippling creek, or rejuvenate and detox in your own spa-like private cedar sauna. Truly a one of a kind must see!
