Experience the pinnacle of mid-century modern preservation and contemporary innovation at The Vanguard Villa (80 Van Leuvan Drive S) in North Greenbush. Located in the desirable East Greenbush Schools and Genet Elementary. Originally constructed in 1958, this architecturally authentic masterpiece has been meticulously reimagined to honor its heritage while embracing elevated luxury. Every line reflects a deep respect for the period's architectural language—warm, intentional, and effortlessly sophisticated. The exterior, clad in natural wood siding and crowned with a new architect-designed roof, sets a refined, organic tone. Inside, the main level unfolds beneath dramatic vaulted ceilings, creating an immediate sense of volume. New maple hardwood floors and slate accents enhance the clean geometry and warmth. The reimagined kitchen is a sculptural triumph, boasting granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and a premium five-burner gas range with double ovens. The home offers dual primary suites for ultimate flexibility. The upper-level retreat features a private balcony and a spa-inspired river rock steam shower. The expansive lower-level suite is a destination unto itself, featuring a refined wet bar, a custom walk-in closet, and an iconic mid-century bathroom with a collectible Crane Neuvogue sink. The grounds function as a private modern resort, complete with a redwood wraparound deck, water feature, and new landscaping. The experience is anchored by a saltwater plunge pool that doubles as a hot tub with a high-output heater and European Renolit liner, surrounded by two new river stone patios. Modern infrastructure includes a whole-house Generac generator, Pella windows, new skylights, new AC, a three-car garage, and a central vacuum system. This is a rare offering where curated design meets timeless innovation.
