Property Description
This stunning Mid-Century Modern home was built in 1950 for Roy Doty, the celebrated cartoonist. A rare opportunity to own an iconic home designed by Henry N. Wright, managing editor of Architectural Forum. Wright and George Nelson, published Tomorrow's Home (1945) a seminal work on the use of space and passive solar. The Doty house is an "open space" weaving nature in through skylights and walls of glass. The flagstone entry leads into the open concept great room, highlighted by a wood paneled vaulted ceiling and floor to ceiling glass that integrates the indoor to outdoor living experience-a core tenet of the Mid-Century esthetic. The great room includes the living-dining area and a den complete with a Fisher wood burning stove. The kitchen and adjoining sunroom transition to an oversized stone patio, all thoughtfully designed for casual living and entertaining. A raised loft office/studio that was Roy Doty's original workspace, and a "sunken" office space are perfectly placed off the entry hall. An attic storage space is accessed by iron rungs set in natural rock walls in the office. The primary bedroom has a private floating deck, and an ensuite bath. 3 additional family bedrooms complete the floor plan. A free standing two car garage is steps from the front door. One hour to NYC by car or Metro North. Parking is limited. There is street parking on side streets across from the house.
