249 Old Saw Mill Road

A rare opportunity to own a true Hudson Valley compound awaits in Germantown with this exceptional offering of two neighboring properties—114 Best Lane and 249 Old Saw Mill Road. Together, they seamlessly encompass three unique structures on over 16 acres of pristine land, blending architectural character, modern refinement, and breathtaking natural surroundings including far reaching views of the Catskill Mountains. The custom-designed main residence at 249 Old Saw Mill Road draws its inspiration from the handsome barns at 114 Best Lane, echoing their forms and materials with a sophisticated, contemporary sensibility. Thoughtfully crafted with an emphasis on natural textures and an unwavering attention to detail, the home offers warmth, elegance, and an effortless connection to the landscape. At its core is an expansive open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and framed by panoramic, western-facing views of the Catskills. The home features two private primary suites, each with its own balcony ideal for enjoying sunset vistas. One suite includes a wood-burning fireplace, creating an intimate and luxurious retreat. A third en suite guest bedroom provides comfort and privacy for visitors. The lower level offers a media lounge, perfect for relaxation or entertaining, while a 2-car garage adds everyday convenience. Just a short stroll away along a private trail, 114 Best Lane features two contemporary barns, one original but fully renovated, and the other newly built, offering dramatic, flexible space for guests, entertainment, creative pursuits, and memorable gatherings. The two barns embody an aesthetic that merges both utter simplicity with the luxury of texture and color. Each is wrapped by porches and has soaring windows and vast doors that open to nature and invite light and views. Exposed beams, stone materials, lofted spaces, and open floor plans create the illusion that inside and outside are one and the same. The main guesthouse has four fireplaces that share an enormous brick chimney that rises proudly through the center of the building. Throughout the structures there are four bedrooms, four bathrooms and two powder rooms. There is a clawfoot or pedestal tub on every floor, including two outside, for peaceful moments while literally soaking it all in. Custom millwork, stained poured-concrete floors and curated finishes lend depth and sophistication. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with covered dining porches, an outdoor shower and soaking tubs, room for a pool and other wellness pursuits like walking trails, vegetable and cutting gardens, and open lawns that can be shaped into both private retreats and shared areas for gathering. A property of this scale and character rarely comes to market in Germantown. This compound is ready for someone who values land, design, nature, and the ability to shape a retreat that feels both personal and expansive. Close by to both Hudson and Rhinebeck and within 2 hours and 15 minutes to Midtown.
