If you’re from the Hudson Valley, you’re probably familiar with Franklin D. Roosevelt National Historic Site and Mills Mansion in Hyde Park and nearby Staatsburg respectively, but what about the more recent breathtaking builds? Take Ledgerock, a 2009 riverfront masterpiece by modern architect Lee Ledbetter that makes the most of its 14,800 square feet, for example. The Hyde Park estate is back on the market for $11.25 million with Jason Karadus of Corcoran Country Living after undergoing significant infrastructure improvements.
The home’s exterior and location speak for itself, with up-close views of the Hudson River and Catskill Mountains from its private peninsula on the water. Set on 10 acres, Ledgerock is constructed of the finest materials, from fossilized French limestone to entire walls of glass. The compound’s main residence offers five bedrooms and seven-and-a-half baths, with a similarly styled guest house that offers an additional three bedrooms and two baths.
One of the very few Hudson Valley homes built directly on the river, the Hyde Park estate is one-of-a-kind in its location due to set-back laws that now prohibit building directly on the water’s edge. Aside from its unique setting, Ledgerock combines modern lines with exotic wood and stone from around the world to result in a truly inspired home that’s ideal for both indoor and outdoor entertaining.
Step inside the home to be greeted by features like a glass-walled great room with a fireplace, a formal dining room, library, billiard room, gym, and massive dine-in kitchen with a separate butler’s pantry. On one corner, the primary suite overlooks the Hudson River and includes a spa-adjacent bathroom, two large dressing rooms, and an office.
As for the home’s exterior, two levels of travertine decks and terraces extend from all major rooms to offer jaw-dropping views of the surrounding landscape. Ledgerock’s 10 acres also include an infinity-edge saltwater pool, elevated hot tub, fire pit, outdoor kitchen, and covered open-air living room.
One of the most extraordinary homes currently available in the Hudson Valley, this Hyde Park estate truly has it all. Along with its infrastructure improvements, Ledgerock’s updated mechanicals include geothermal heating and cooling, radiant heated stone floors, state-of-the-art security, and enough indoor parking space to satisfy any car collector.
Ledgerock is located at 46 Ledgerock Lane in Hyde Park.
