535 Mount Tobias Road, Mt. Tremper, NY 12457

Inspired by the works of Phillip Johnson, Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Kahn, this modern masterpiece with its multitude of windows embracing a panoramic mountain view, is one of the most stunning structures Woodstock has had to offer in recent years. Finished in 2007 and designed by Barry Price, the house, with its clean, sloping and dramatic exterior lines has a gravitas more recent new constructions lack. Nearly every room has a view and most gaze out to the undulation of the Catskills: a classic example of "bringing the outside in." The owner has remarked that he has chosen to have no artwork on the walls because "We wanted the outside to be the art." Inside, the house appeals to modern aesthetic tastes: an open floorplan with a cook's kitchen anchored by a huge slate island and a soaring stone fireplace the centerpiece of the living area. A media room, which can easily be used as a fourth bedroom with nearby full bath, is conveniently annexed to the living space. The primary bedroom features a deck to soak in the staggering view. All appointments -- a substantial use of marble in the bathrooms -- are exquisitely chosen and the oak flooring throughout gives just the right amount of warmth to modernist spaces. A whole-house generator offers peace of mind during winter-wonderland months. And if you want, just drop a pool in front of that spectacular view. Private and ablaze with light, cradled by the Catskills, this home is truly a one-of-a-kind Woodstock wonder. Just recently -- September 22 -- a full appraisal valued the property at the listing price of $1,450,000.
