Property Description
Inside the gates of Riven Rock, the storied 1896 McCormick estate, this 2.53-acre property rests beneath a canopy of 200-year-old oaks. Rebuilt over 3 years, the original 1958 house was taken down to the earth. What stands today is a newly constructed single-level residence and detached guest house, designed to sit quietly within the landscape. Vaulted shiplap ceilings, blackened steel windows, Venetian plaster, Italian marble, brushed brass, white oak, and walls of glass open to the oak grove and gardens beyond. The grounds unfold with decomposed-granite paths, a natural-edge pool, sunken firepit beneath a century-old oak, chef's garden, fruit trees, and original stone bridges from the historic estate. Cold Spring School District. Moments to the Upper Village and Butterfly Beach.
