One of the most unique Mid-Century Modern homes in the New York region is on the market! Built in 1961 by prominent structural engineer August Komendant, whose career included work alongside Louis Khan, this two-story house enjoys spectacular year-round views of the Manhattan skyline from nearly every room on the property. The property featuring 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a large top-level deck, a lower-level patio, a workout room and living room with 11-ft. ceilings was gut-renovated in 2016; smart-home conveniences were added even as the original architecture was preserved. In 2022, the kitchen and bathrooms were reimagined with meticulous attention to detail; in the cozy family room on the lower level, a custom walnut bar was installed. This home, set on .5 acre of private, lushly landscaped property, is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
