The main level showcases an open chef's kitchen outfitted with three new high-end Wolf appliances and a new 48'' Sub-Zero refrigerator, seamlessly connecting to the formal dining room and grand living room with fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows -- all perfectly positioned to capture panoramic mountain and landscape views. Soaring ceilings, warm wood accents, and thoughtfully curated living spaces create an ideal balance of elegance and comfort, designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Also located on the first level is a full en-suite bedroom, ideal for guests, extended family, or a private mother-in-law setup, offering both comfort and convenience. Ascend to the second level by way of one of two custom wood staircases, where the luxurious primary suite serves as a peaceful private retreat. The suite features dual walk-in closets, a spacious walk-in shower, soaking Jacuzzi-style tub, private sitting area, and its own balcony overlooking the surrounding landscape. Three additional bedrooms complete the upper level, some with direct access to the wraparound rooftop deck. Architecturally distinctive from every angle, the home's striking modern exterior, seamless interior flow, and elevated mountainside setting beautifully complement the tranquility and natural beauty of the property. The walk-out lower level offers exceptional versatility and is perfectly suited for post-pool entertaining, featuring a sprawling great room with 10+ foot ceilings ideal for a gym, media room, recreation space, or game lounge, along with an expansive storage area providing abundant room for organization. Outside, the grounds are nothing short of spectacular. Wraparound decks, a Juliet balcony, stone walls, and a winding path leading to a tranquil koi pond create an extraordinary outdoor setting ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation. An oversized three-bay garage offers ample space for vehicles, outdoor equipment, and recreational toys. Additional recent improvements include a newer boiler and roof, both replaced within the past five years, adding peace of mind and long-term value. Beyond the property itself, Cornwall offers the perfect blend of scenic beauty and small-town charm, with local shops, restaurants, and endless outdoor recreation nearby. Enjoy hiking and biking at Black Rock Forest or explore the renowned Storm King Art Center just minutes away. Conveniently located near Beacon and Newburgh and approximately one hour north of the George Washington Bridge. For premier shopping, Woodbury Common Premium Outlets is only minutes away via the Harriman Thruway exit. This remarkable estate offers a rare opportunity to experience luxury, privacy, and convenience in one of the Hudson Valley's most sought-after settings.
