Dobrodošli u “Eustatiu” — jednog od najpovijesnije značajnih i arhitektonski izvanrednih domova Beacon-a.

Izgrađena 1867. za suca Johna Monella i Caroline Downing, udovicu slavnog arhitekta Andrewa Jacksona Downinga, ovo imanje u visokom viktorijanskom gotičkom stilu dizajnirao je Frederick Clarke Withers i objavljeno je u izdanju Cottage Residences iz 1873. kao Dizajn XXV. Smješteno na nearly pet acres s pogledom na rijeku Hudson, ovo remek-djelo stoji kao živi testament majstorskom radu 19. stoljeća i vanvremenskoj eleganciji.

Glavna razina sadrži formalne sobe za zabavu s visokim bay prozorima i francuskim vratima koja su nekada vodila na prostranu verandu — sada vode do zatvorenog obiteljskog prostora i terase s panoramskim pogledom na rijeku Hudson. Velika spavaća soba na glavnoj etaži nudi fleksibilnost za goste ili život na jednoj razini. Dnevna soba nesmetano prelazi u bilijarsku sobu i knjižnicu, stvarajući sofisticiranu postavku za intimne skupove ili velike proslave.

Na gornjem katu, četiri prostrane spavaće sobe nastavljaju graciozni dizajn doma, s visokim stropovima, zadivljujućom svjetlošću i mirnim pogledima na rijeku. Svaki prostor izaziva mir i mogućnosti — idealno za preobrazbu u umjetničko utočište, kreativni studio ili wellness svetište.

Smještena manje od jedne milje od glavne ulice Beacon-a i Metro-North stanice, Eustatia nudi rijetku ravnotežu — blizinu umjetnosti, prirode i kulture, dok se osjeća kao da ste daleko od svega.

Više od doma, Eustatia je živo poglavlje američke arhitektonske povijesti — svijetli svetište umjetnosti, svjetlosti i naslijeđa, koje čeka svog sljedećeg vizionarskog skrbnika.

Welcome to “Eustatia” — one of Beacon’s most historically significant and architecturally remarkable homes.

Built in 1867 for Judge John Monell and Caroline Downing, widow of celebrated architect Andrew Jackson Downing, this High Victorian Gothic estate was designed by Frederick Clarke Withers and published in the 1873 edition of Cottage Residences as Design XXV. Set on nearly five acres overlooking the Hudson River, this masterpiece stands as a living testament to 19th-century craftsmanship and timeless elegance.

The main level features formal entertaining rooms with tall bay windows and French doors that once opened to a sweeping veranda — now leading to an enclosed family room and deck with panoramic Hudson River views. A large main-floor bedroom offers flexibility for guests or single-level living. The living room flows seamlessly into a billiard room and library, creating a sophisticated setting for intimate gatherings or grand celebrations.

Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms continue the home’s graceful design, with soaring ceilings, stunning light, and tranquil river views. Each space evokes peace and possibility — ideal for transforming into an artist’s retreat, creative studio, or wellness sanctuary.

Located less than one mile from Beacon’s Main Street and Metro-North station, Eustatia offers a rare balance — proximity to art, nature, and culture, while feeling worlds away.

More than a home, Eustatia is a living chapter of American architectural history — a luminous sanctuary of art, light, and legacy, awaiting its next visionary steward. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
