REAL ESTATE

reated by artists and designed to embrace a truly lush and diverse natural setting, this significant residence is equal parts work of art and sleek retreat. Commanding over 23 secluded acres just 90 minutes by car from the New York Metro area, the house was the brainchild of renowned ceramicists Phillip Maberry and Scott Walker and the property served as a location for the iconic and MTV Award-winning “Love Shack” video by the B-52s. This truly singular offering has even been lauded as a “thrill ride on the color wheel” by the New York Times Home & Garden section.

The unique “modern” design features 3 distinct living levels in an airy open floor plan awash in natural light from multiple “floor-to-ceiling” windows. Built around and incorporating a natural rock outcrop, the interior is a delight to behold, perfectly blending form and function with a dazzling display of masterful tilework and mosaic creations all designed and fired on site. Combined with the massive hemlock beams reclaimed from the property which cap each room, the ambiance is at once warm, playful and distinctly of the moment. Subsequent owners have made important system upgrades while preserving the colorful Maberry & Walker aesthetic which makes this property a one-of-kind.

The easily livable interior features a 23’ living room, eat-kitchen, family/media room, two second level bedrooms plus a sun drenched third level bedroom retreat that sits atop the house like a secret tree house. So fun! The flooring is all hardwood or ceramic and there are two full baths. The two-car garage has been finished and can easily function as a spacious STUDIO with an open-air option. A perfect place to create your own artistic contribution to this artisanal abode. Truly a visually stellar experience both inside and out!
