For affluent Upstate New York buyers in the market for a smart home, or a large ‘smart estate’ rather, this Hudson Valley residence equipped with Savant Systems could be just the right find. Not only are the structures at Bald Mountain Estate fully-automated, but the property also offers high-style and plenty of privacy as well for the asking price of $8.95 million.
The spread is sleek and contemporary yet beautifully rustic across its nearly 85 acres. Across the property are three structures—the main house, designed to host all the gatherings, and two separate guest cottages that are perfect for overnight visitors. Wherever you are, a blend of airy and moody vibes abound. Different wood tones contrast a variety of black finishes, making the atmosphere feel modern yet almost spa-like.
High ceilings soar in the main house, which houses a beautiful kitchen and all the modern conveniences of today.Walls of windows make it feel like an at-home snow globe during the winter, but wood-burning fireplaces have no trouble with warming the place up. Downstairs sits a full fitness studio, but if working out at home isn’t your choice, there are miles of hiking trails outdoors to explore the natural land.
A total of five bedrooms and four bathrooms round out the compound’s accommodations, each designed with relaxation and tranquility in mind. Outside, the fully-integrated smart system controls the pool and speaker system, perfect for summer parties when the sun is out. The magnificent views are a beautiful backdrop no matter the season, continuously evolving across the vast property.
Rachel Haley of Houlihan Lawrence holds the Upper Hudson Valley listing, which is just a short drive away from the Berkshires.
