10 Trout Creek Road, Kerhonkson, NY 12446

Nestled into the woods, off a quiet country road, a long driveway winds up through the trees and Lantern Ridge House slowly reveals itself. Defined by a sense of peace and privacy, this exquisite property is gracefully—and intentionally—perched at the highest ridge of the tranquil 6 acre property. This special home was designed and brought to life in 2015 by renowned local architect Marica McKeel, founder of Studio MM. The approach to the front door allows you to see through the home to nature beyond. This is a signature element in Studio MM design, creating a fully immersive experience integrating the home into the landscape to feel as though you are walking outside, even as you are stepping in. Three ''wings'' create a C shaped property with a central courtyard and a dramatic great room with walls of windows that frame the landscape and its seasonal ridge view. Dappled sunlight filters in through the many oversized windows further bringing the nature inside and creating a sense of ambient calm. Heated concrete floors found throughout beautifully contrast with the vaulted wooden ceiling. A wrap-around deck and perfectly positioned hot tub embrace this side of the home. Every corner of this tree house feels thoughtfully considered and serene, but there is also a focus on functionality with plenty of storage, a whole house generator, central AC/heat, and mini splits. Lantern Ridge House is one of five Waterfalls Properties, all designed by Studio MM and built by Hudson Valley Contemporary Homes, that create this special HOA. Each unique property is incredibly private and crafted to interact with the surrounding nature but not with each other. There are no annual fees and each space tells its own story within this special community of contemporary homes in the woods. Perfectly situated in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains and at the edge of Sundown Forest, this tranquil location is also conveniently close to many wonderful local establishments. INNESS, Westwind Orchard, Arrowood Farms, Harana Market, Accord Market, and Bluebird Wine Shop are a few favorites but the list goes on! Plus, you're just 90 miles from the GWB.
