Originally part of the Knapp Estate, this sleek contemporary home has an additional two-bed guest house over the three-car garage. Original oak raised floors and walls of glass bring the clean lines of mid-century architectural style to the fore. Dazzling mountain views. Along with fresh paint and new driveway, this home has been excellently maintained. It may be most appealing to buyers wishing to upgrade a contemporary home with wonderful 1968 mid-century ambiance. 1,000 feet from Cold Spring School, it is equally distant between the upper and lower villages (1.3 miles). Usable 1.76 acre lot is accessible from two streets and may become more valuable as rules for splitting SB-9 lots are clarified. First time on the market in 25 years.
