Property Description
Modernist retreat in a pastoral Berkshire setting-an artful sanctuary where design, landscape, and light exist in quiet harmony. Designed by acclaimed architect Deby Reiser, this light-filled two-bedroom, three-bath home blends refined urban modernism with the stillness of the countryside. Set along a quiet dirt road beside Moon In The Pond Farm, (an eco-conscious farm) a landscape of grazing sheep and open fields exists outside your window. The home feels private yet deeply connected to nature. Completely reimagined and meticulously renovated, it offers low-maintenance luxury within an intimate, thoughtfully designed footprint. Clean architectural lines, natural textures, and carefully placed windows frame the surrounding landscape like living artwork. Vaulted white ceilings and minimalist lighting enhance volume and light, while floor-to-ceiling glass brings the outdoors in. The open kitchen and living space centers around a sculptural stone island designed for both gathering and function, complemented by custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, a sunlit breakfast nook, and a fireplace for year-round comfort. The primary suite is privately set on its own level with a balcony, soaring ceilings, an oversized Noguchi light fixture, and sweeping mountain views. A spa-like bath features a soaking tub and marble-clad walls.
