STUNNING SECLUDED RETREAT… At the end of a winding gravel road, on rocky banks, reflected in a beautiful swim pond, this stylish refuge suddenly shows its welcoming presence. Published in "Timeless Design," author Bo Niles describes how architect Larry Bogdanow ingeniously assimilated the house into the rugged terrain and skillfully used a range of warm-toned woods such as cedar, maple, cherry, and fir, keeping the interiors as simple as possible. The open living areas with a sculptural fireplace as the focus (middle four photos) and master bedroom suite with soaring ceiling and high balcony on the second floor (last two photos), all face the pond. A handsome studio, or third bedroom, overlooks the expansive natural garden behind the house (see next page). The totally quiet and private 25-acre property provides a secluded Garden of Eden minutes from the Taconic Parkway in southernmost Columbia County.
