Smještena na gotovo 9 mirnih hektara u srcu povijesne Byrdcliffe umjetničke kolonije u Woodstocku, ova nekretnina predstavlja rijetku sintezu arhitektonske preciznosti i prirodne harmonije—utjelovljenje dubokog razumijevanja prostora, zvuka i mjesta nagrađivanog arhitekta Johna Storyka. Projektirana 1969. godine na samom početku Storykove sada legendarne karijere—nedugo nakon njegovog revolucionarnog rada na Electric Lady Studios Jimi Hendrixa i poznatom Bearsville Theatre—ova kuća suvremenog dizajna obložena sekvojom odražava njegov prepoznatljiv stil: intuitivni protok, topli prirodni materijali i arhitektova osjetljivost prema formi i funkciji. Ova kuća za jednu obitelj s 4 spavaće sobe, 4 kupaonice i više od 4.000 četvornih stopa (uključuje kuću za goste/bazeni) smještena je privatno s ribnjakom, grijanim unutarnjim bazenom s morskom soli, gunite bazenom i velikom kućom za goste/bazen. Ovaj srednjevjekovni moderni sanctuary definiran je svojim visokim stropovima, prilagođenim drvenim radovima i organskom vezom s okolnim krajobrazom. Svaka soba obasjana je prirodnom svjetlošću kroz staklene zidove, orijentirana da maksimizira okolne poglede na livade, šumu i nebo. Dramatizirana zakrivljena, uvučena dnevna soba—okrenuta velikom opečenom kaminu—potiče senzornu uronjenost tipičnu za Storykove izvođačke prostore. Ovdje, prostorna geometrija i akustika nisu slučajne, već su osnovne; nudeći ne samo mjesto za život, već i mjesto za slušanje i osjećaj. U srcu doma nalazi se kuhinja Poggenpohl—čist, funkcionalan radni prostor osmišljen s obzirom na domaće kuhare—koja se otvara prema blagovaonicama i okupljalištima koja se bez napora protežu prema zatvorenom trijemu, prostranim palubama, uređenim vrtovima i mirnom ribnjaku; sve dizajnirano da potiče mir i kreativnu inspiraciju. Svaka linija i prag odražavaju Storykovo uvjerenje da arhitektura treba podržavati kreativnost i mir—nikada se natjecati s njom. Privatni prostori uključuju luksuzni glavni apartman na prvom katu i apartman za goste (s vlastitim ulazom) koji uključuje kuhinju, punu kupaonicu i privatnu terasu—idealan za zabavljanje, stvaranje ili povlačenje. Kroz cijelu nekretninu unutarnji volumeni izbalansirani su vanjskim prostorima s kuriranim livadama i reflektirajućim vodenim elementima uključujući veliki, grijani, slani, unutarnji bazen Gunite) svi pojačavajući ideju kuće kao instrumenta usklađenog sa svojim okruženjem. Dok je John Storyk globalno poznat po akustički savršenim studijima i svjetski poznatim izvođačkim mjestima, ova kuća otkriva drugu stranu njegovog genija: tihe umjetničke kvalitete domaćeg prostora, gdje su svjetlost, proporcija i mirnoća jednako važni kao i zvuk. Rezidencija poput ove—dizajnirana od strane jednog od najinovativnijih arhitektonskih umova 20. stoljeća, i smještena u kulturnom enclaveu jednako bogatom pričama kao Byrdcliffe—doista je jedinstvena ponuda. 289 Upper Byrdcliffe Road nije samo dom, već i živo, rezonantno iskustvo—promišljeno zamišljeno, majstorski izgrađeno i duboko ukorijenjeno u kreativnom duhu Woodstocka. Molimo napomenite: Postoje dodatni planovi odobreni od strane grada za zasebnu građevinu s vlastitim septičkim sustavom i ulazom za parkiranje. Sve to stvara izvanredan kompleks s neograničenim mogućnostima za dobro proživljen život.

Set on nearly 9 serene acres in the heart of Woodstock's historic Byrdcliffe Arts Colony is a rare synthesis of architectural precision and natural harmony—an embodiment of award-winning architect John Storyk's deep understanding of space, sound, and site. Designed in 1969 at the very beginning of Storyk's now-legendary career—just after his groundbreaking work on Jimi Hendrix's Electric Lady Studios and the famous Bearsville Theatre—this redwood-clad contemporary home reflects his signature style: intuitive flow, warm natural materials, and an architect's sensitivity to both form and function. The 4 BR, 4 Bath, 4,000+ sq ft (includes guest/pool house) single family home is privately sited with a pond, heated in-ground salt water, gunite pool, and massive guest/pool house. This Mid-Century Modern sanctuary is defined by its soaring ceilings, custom mill work, and an organic relationship with the surrounding landscape. Every room is bathed in natural light through walls of glass, and oriented to maximize the surrounding views of meadow, woods, and sky. A dramatic curved, sunken living room—anchored by a large brick fireplace—evokes the sensorial immersion typical of Storyk's performance spaces. Here, spatial geometry and acoustics are not incidental but essential; offering not just a place to live, but a place to listen and feel. At the heart of the home is a Poggenpohl kitchen—a clean, functional workspace designed with the home chef in mind—that opens to dining and gathering areas which flow out effortlessly to the screened porch, expansive decks, landscaped gardens, and tranquil pond beyond; all designed to foster serenity and creative inspiration. Every line and threshold reflects Storyk's belief that architecture should support creativity and calm—never compete with it. Private spaces include a luxurious first floor primary suite and a guest apartment (with its own entrance) featuring a kitchen, full bath, and private deck—ideal for hosting, creating, or retreating. Across the entire property the interior volumes are balanced by exterior spaces with curated meadows, and reflective water elements including the large, heated, salt water, in-ground, Gunite pool) all reinforcing the idea of the house as an instrument tuned to its environment. While John Storyk is globally known for acoustically perfect studios and world-class performance venues, this home reveals another side of his genius: the quiet artistry of domestic space, where light, proportion, and stillness are as important as sound. A residence like this—designed by one of the 20th century's most innovative architectural minds, and located in a cultural enclave as storied as Byrdcliffe—is a truly singular offering. 289 Upper Byrdcliffe Road is not just a home, but a living, resonant experience—thoughtfully conceived, masterfully built, and deeply rooted in the creative spirit of Woodstock. Please note: Additional town-approved plans exist for a separate structure with its own septic and driveway entrance. All this coalesces to make an extraordinary compound with limitless options for a life well lived. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
