Barclay Manor is tucked away on two private acres covered in verdant gardens, mature trees and antique bluestone in the Village of Saugerties. In true Italian Renessaince Revival fashion, the home was built to an imposing scale incorporating classic details and set back from the road overlooking a great lawn with a dramatic entryway, evoking the feeling of complete privacy whilst being mere minutes from the heart of town. Like the Romanesque styles and other later classically-inspired styles, the Italian Renaissance Revival looked to Italy and the ancient world for inspiration. Originally built for a prominent sea captain, the experience of world travel can be felt in the unique and progressive architectural choices that create a balance between opulence and Tuscan rusticism. Each floor is structured around custom millwork, expansive hallways and rooms made for lingering, each with a view of the manicured grounds. The five bedrooms, with the potential for six, are spread over two large floors and generous in both size and character allowing each resident or guest to delve into their own world within. There are many places to gather including a true great room which retains its original curved plaster walls and opens up onto the arbor covered patio climbing with roses and hydrangea. The social orientation is to the rear of the home with different landings made of antique bluestone overlooking the heated saline pool and out onto the historic maples. The property descends to a lower level by way of winding blue stone pathways that travel up and down the forest floor with scenic viewing points along the way. Upon reaching the bottom you will find an ambient atmosphere perfect for late afternoon lounging centered around a self sustaining koi pond that is equal parts enchanting and impressive. Once night falls, travel back along the lit pathway to gather around the stone built fire pit. Barclay Manor is a peaceful and sophisticated country home, just two hours to New York City and less than five minutes to some of the Hudson Valley's most prized destinations for food, culture and shopping.
