THE HOLTZBERG HOUSE, 1955 RESTORATION/EXPANSION BY EDWARD I. MILLS 2009
NATURE T H E A R T O F L I V I N G W E L L . 14 CRADLE ROCK ROAD, POUND RIDGE. This exceptionally restored & expanded wood and glass cubist home exudes warmth & calm. Minimalist design details of .25 reveal, clerestory windows, floating wall & cantilevered structure will excite the architectural enthusiast. Unassuming from the road, and not until you reach the pebbled motor court does Zen architecture reveal itself upon it’s 2.75 acre preserve-like private property. The generous garage with mahogany overhead doors & rear-facing glass wall is appropriately proportionate with the house, seamless in design. On approach to front entry you experience a welcoming fell by visual aesthetics of stone, wood & front-to-back glass. Once inside high-beamed ceilings & open social spaces inclusive of dining & living areas greet you and present vistas of the wooded grounds beyond. A professional stainless steel eat-in kitchen * adjacent living space is enveloped in light & offers direct access to the outdoors & swimming pool. A main floor cubist extension smartly designed for the master suite gives ultimate privacy from the main bedroom wing. Expansion & renovation of the original minimalist design was in keeping with eco friendly standards as example only sustainable harvested redwood was utilized throughout. The homes walkout lower level allows social spaces, bedroom & au pair/office to enjoy walls of glass opening to the outdoors. The clerestory windows add architectural interest providing a floating structural exterior appearance. The homes many outdoor social spaces include view decking, pebbled motor court & covered terraces. Glass walls bring nature in & allow for year round enjoyment of the private property. Graphic Japanese-style landscape design, a green area as negative space & a boulder seating area with fire pit compliment the properties beautifully integrated swimming pool.
