Scandinavian-inspired living in upstate New York! Welcome to Hopwood House, a naturalist contemporary new build offering sustainable living in Dutchess County. Designed to harmonize with its scenic surroundings, this home showcases exceptional craftsmanship with high-end building materials including cedar siding, a durable metal standing-seam roof, and natural stone accents. The house is energy-efficient with a passive solar design, mini-split heating and cooling, and a well-insulated envelope. Step into the striking double-height great room, the heart of the home, featuring clean lines and natural materials, radiant-heated polished concrete floors, a sculptural woodstove, and two oversized slider doors that open onto a bluestone patio. The expansive windows, oriented to capture the morning sun, flood the space with natural light, enhancing the architectural elegance and connection to nature. An open-concept chef’s kitchen is both functional and artful, showcasing handcrafted cabinetry, honed marble countertops, and Miele appliances, perfect for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The first-floor primary suite is a peaceful oasis, complete with an ensuite bath and direct access to the outdoor spaces. A versatile den or home office, along with a chic powder room and discreetly integrated laundry, complete this level. Upstairs, two airy bedrooms with cathedral ceilings create a sense of openness, with one offering picturesque views of the rolling hills. The 5-inch wide oak flooring, warmed by radiant heat, adds comfort and sophistication, while a beautifully appointed full bath reflects the home’s understated luxury. Outside, a fenced yard offers privacy, while the surrounding landscape—bathed in southern and eastern light—invites endless possibilities for lush gardens or a future pool. Hopwood House is ideally located near Rhinebeck’s vibrant dining and cultural scene, with convenient access to the Taconic Parkway and the best of the Hudson Valley.
