At the foot of the Gunks, where the forest softens into sky and the trails of Gertrude’s Nose begin to call, a remarkable modern A-frame quietly reveals itself.

Built just last year and set on 2.42 private acres, this deeply intentional retreat feels less like a house and more like a love letter to craftsmanship, landscape, and slowing down. Just three minutes from the Awosting Preserve and the Minnewaska trail system on Beecher Hill Road, it offers that increasingly rare balance of refined luxury and total immersion in nature.
The architecture is striking in its simplicity. Clean lines. Soaring glass. An expansive deck suspended among the trees. Inside, a breathtaking floor-to-ceiling wall of windows transforms the living space into something almost cinematic, flooding the home with ever-changing natural light and framing the surrounding landscape like living artwork through every season. Morning coffee arrives with sunrise through the canopy. Evenings settle in beneath a soft golden glow as the forest becomes part of the experience itself.

Yet the true soul of the home is found in the extraordinary custom four-sided floor-to-ceiling conglomerate stone fireplace that anchors the entire space. Every single stone was hand-selected directly from a nearby quarry only miles away. The most exceptional pieces were reserved for the corners, the lintel, and the hearth, creating a sculptural centerpiece that feels both grounded and artful in its design.
The same stone continues outdoors, lining the pathway from the deck to the front drive, blurring the boundary between architecture and the surrounding land.

Inside, every detail speaks quietly but confidently of quality and care. A beautifully appointed kitchen features a Wolf gas range, paneled refrigerator, and a level of finish rarely found in homes of this scale. The two-bedroom, two-bath layout unfolds across approximately 1,300 square feet with an effortless sense of warmth, restraint, and cohesion.

What makes this home unforgettable is not simply the materials or the design, but the feeling that every inch was thoughtfully imagined and methodically executed by someone who truly cared. It is a home that exudes intention. A home that understands luxury is not excess, but beauty, authenticity, and connection to place.

A-frame living, elevated to an art form.
