Annandale

Nestled in the picturesque setting of the New York Hudson River Valley, Annandale stands as a contemporary barn-style home that is a true work of art. This remarkable residence was designed by Auver Architects and engineered and built by Yankee Barn Homes.

At it’s core, Annandale is three simple rectangles, but that’s where simple ends and engineering mastery begins. The windows along the western wall are over-size and open accordion style, requiring finely tuned structural support. The first floor vaulted ceilings in the living room are two-stories high. A Douglas fir timber frame was utilized to create the owner’s vision.

The floor plan is a combination of open space and compartmentalized rooms. The main structure houses the great room, kitchen, dining and family rooms. The kitchen and dining rooms are one large area that includes a sizable pantry and the room’s focal point, a large fireplace housing an Earthstone pizza oven. The upper level contains a mezzanine,  three bedrooms and an over-size bathroom.

The primary bedroom suite is a stand alone building connected to the main house via the glass foyer. The suite has a large bedroom, a private sitting room and a bathroom, accessed via his and her walk-in closets.

The third rectangle is a three-car garage with a connector to both the foyer and the main house. This space consists of a mudroom, a staircase to the lower level and a half-bath.
