Property Description

Clark House, a legacy property with extraordinary provenance, was reimagined by design legends Delphine and Reed Krakoff, adding their imprimatur of spare modern elegance. Reminiscent of a French hunting lodge, the property was purchased by copper heiress Huguette Clark as a country house. The volume of the rooms, windows, and quality of light create a sense of serenity and openness. Stately yet modern, this is a house that can be lived in with comfort and ease. Off the dining room is a walled garden and custom pavilion for entertaining. The 52 acres were transformed with noted landscape architect Perry Guillot into a private park with a great lawn, woodland trails and streams. A new pool and tennis court were added. Twin cottages are gym & caretaker. This caliber of property is a rarity. Caretaker cottage: 1096 sq ft, two bedrooms Gym:1296 sqft ** The property had a since reversed 10 lot subdivision when purchased indicating potential for pool house or guest house structures.** Additional Rooms: Library 31.4 x 14.7, Breakfast Room Pantry 12 x 14.9, Art Studio 14.1 x 17.10, Primary Suite Sitting Room 20.11 x 17.8, Primary Suite Office 24.10 x 13.5, Theater 30.7 x 21.5., Professional Laundry 14.3 x 22.4, Cedar Storage Room 18.x 5,1, All measurements approximate.
