Property Description

Welcome to Cricket Ridge Tower House, a Woodstock artists' mountaintop retreat with breathtaking views and meditative sculpture gardens located 5 minutes to the Village. Surrounded by spectacular perennial gardens, there is visual interest in all seasons with a chorus of beautiful and vibrant blooms throughout the warmer months. This home was built by and has served as inspiration for the owners, an established painter and sculptor and an esteemed ceramic artist who together have created their light filled sanctuary and work space. A double height great room welcomes one into the luscious light and opens to far reaching views creating a truly happy space. The long artisan crafted island with beautiful spalted maple countertop separates the living and cooking spaces affording a tremendous amount of entertainment and prep area and ''hang out'' space for the crowd that always gravitates toward the kitchen! The adjacent den which doubles as a guest room flows toward the back of the home and includes a whimsical and very glamorous half bath complete with a vintage Italian chandelier. A newly created hallway with skylights transitions into a super flexible room with great light and soaring ceiling height which is currently used as a painting studio. This room could remain an artist's haven, or one could turn it into a 2nd large primary suite or even two additional rooms. The primary suite has entry from the living room or the studio and has beautifully designed closet space and a large en suite bath with cheerful tile work and enough space for two. The massive screened in porch is like no other and is truly a divine sanctuary with built in banquette and stained glass panels along the top for an extraordinary experience while overlooking the view. Three seasons of wonder and joy can be had in this remarkable spot. The grounds provide endless drama and surprises from the natural greenery and tree canopy to beautifully designed perennial gardens, to a three tiered tower conceived by the owner. Constructed and adorned with primary colors, the artist's vision has served as a great outdoor entertainment area for parties! A fish pond, sculpture garden, Japanese meditation garden with bench built into the hillside are among many of the exterior details to explore. A seasonal 1 bedroom cottage is ready for your Summer guests and can double as gym or office space. A path with stone steps leads up into the wooded hillside behind the cottage for another top of Cricket Ridge viewpoint. This home is truly unique and a wonderland for any creative spirit. The Woodstock community is home to many artists, writers and musicians and continues to carry on that tradition with an influx of folks seeking a quieter lifestyle with access to great restaurants, shops, galleries and cultural events all within 2 hours of NYC.
