Insane Equestrian Palace in Wassaic
A polo field, 48-stall barn, and awe-inspiring views and architecture.
Tucked into the rolling hills between Millbrook and Amenia, this 165-acre estate at 365–381 Tower Hill Road has awe-inspiring views and architecture. Designed by Resolution: 4 Architecture and completed in 2019, this 7,500-square-foot modernist residence is a steel, wood, and glass palace with a regulation polo field extending into the horizon (the listing notes that the paddock area and 48-stall barn would also make a great show jumping facility).
A glass pivot door divides the home’s two wings—one for service, the other for living and entertaining. Inside the main wing, 70 feet of floor-to-ceiling glass frame a great room anchored by a black steel fireplace, with a media lounge, gym, and hidden office beside, all privy to views that look like they could be a painting. Upstairs, an outdoor lounge and bar take further advantage of the scenery. The primary suite is its own sanctuary, with a meditation room, twin dressing rooms, and spa-like bathrooms that include a soaking tub with unobstructed views.
Beyond the house, the property boasts an infinity pool and spa, pool house with kitchen, croquet court, and restored meadows landscaped by Wagner Hodgson. Two staff houses and a courtyard with mossy Belgian block complete the scene.
365–381 Tower Hill Road is listed for $20,000,000 by Noble B. Black and Maria O. Mendelsohn at Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
