Ethereal Box in Copake
A light-filled space on nine acres on the hills near Copake Lake.
49 Sky Top Road in Copake is a boxy scuptural wonder, nestled in the wilderness. "The Nine Square House," designed by artist Zak Kitnick in collaboration with architect Francesco Galetto, this new contemporary home offers 3,886 square feet of light-filled space on nine acres on the hills near Copake Lake.
It's interesting that the outside of this house is so severe in Columbia County's hilly landscape, but the inside is cozy and reflects its pastoral surroundings. At the heart of the home is a dramatic marble fireplace and oversized glass doors that open the main living space to a terrace and panoramic views of the countryside. The main floor features a kitchen, double living room, office/studio, and carefully detailed utility spaces. A solid white oak staircase anchors the layout, leading to four second-floor bedrooms, each with windows that frame the landscape.
49 Sky Top Road is listed for $2,475,000 by Raj Kumar at Four Seasons Sotheby’s International Realty.
