506 Silvernails Rd

A rare offering of enduring beauty and thoughtful design, this extraordinary modern farmhouse—built in 2019—stands as a true masterpiece set on 52.32 acres of rolling landscape, with sweeping views of mountains, open hills, and the Roeliff Jansen Kill. Spanning 6,875 square feet, the residence blends refined craftsmanship with a warm, livable elegance. Reclaimed 19th-century pine floors with rose head nails run throughout, grounding the home in history while soaring ceilings—including 10’7” in the kitchen and a dramatic 24’6” vaulted, beamed living room—create a sense of scale and light. Walls of windows frame the house and look out onto the established English gardens and beyond to the surrounding hills and orchards. The heart of the home is a remarkable kitchen, complete with its own fireplace, a Lacanche range, and a full wall of glass overlooking the landscape. A separate pantry is equally well-appointed with marble countertops, SubZero refrigerator, and a Miele dishwasher. Every space reflects an uncompromising attention to detail. The main living room is both grand and inviting, featuring exposed beams, a fireplace, built-in library, and French doors that open seamlessly to the outdoors. The primary suite offers a private retreat with a 17’6” vaulted, beamed ceiling, its own fireplace, and a wall of glass capturing the Berkshire Mountains. The spa-like bath includes marble double vanities, a clawfoot tub, and an open shower, complemented by custom-designed closets. A thoughtfully designed greenhouse breezeway connects the main house to a beautifully appointed guest wing. This unique space features soapstone sinks, plaster walls, and French doors leading to a charming courtyard with a fountain made from a 300 year old limestone trough. The guest wing includes a vaulted great room with kitchenette, bedroom, and bath, along with a separate studio or office with woodstove and an additional powder room—ideal for guests, extended stays, or creative pursuits. Additional features include an expansive laundry room with double washers, a dedicated yoga or fitness room, and a mudroom designed for both function and style. Outdoors, the property is equally compelling. There is a heated, saline 18’ x 50’ gunite pool and pergola for dining al fresco. The formal gardens are planted with heirloom roses, towering delphiniums and other classic cottage flowers that bloom the whole season long, and include a white garden that glows in the moonlight. This is a truly bucolic property with dry stonewalls, antique blue stone terraces and a walled vegetable garden just waiting to be planted in the spring. The land itself is rich and vibrant, with an organic orchard featuring multiple varieties of pear, apple, plum and peach, along with blackberry, blueberry, and raspberry bushes. A classic 24’ x 38’ barn with wood sided walls and a separate workspace offers further versatility and space for storing wood and tools. Bordering the property, the Roeliff Jansen Kill provides a peaceful natural edge with trout fishing, complemented by a tributary stream that meets the Roe Jan and picturesque waterfalls. Designed with sustainability in mind, the property incorporates solar energy and electric car charging while seamlessly blending efficiency with luxury living. An exceptional Hudson Valley estate where timeless materials, modern efficiency, and breathtaking natural surroundings come together in perfect harmony.
