A D V E R T I S E M E N T

The intangibles of good design — from the architecture on the outside to the finishes and layout inside — are becoming as critical as location to choosey buyers.

High Design LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION is still the mantra of real estate. But there is a significant number of buyers for whom design is just as important as location in making their final decision. “We are finding there are people who come to see a house because of the design, and then discover they like the neighborhood —and not the other way around,” said Todd Goddard, a specialist in Modernist-style architecture and associate broker with Houlihan Lawrence Country Property. “They come for the architecture first, as if they were buying a piece of art within nature.” Caroline Shepherd of Houlihan Lawrence, along with Goddard, is marketing a Modernist home on 18 acres perched on a quarry ledge above a spring-fed lake at 28 Baylis Lane in Bedford, N.Y. Built in 1985, and then completely redone from 2005 to 2007, the home has all the Modernist design elements — the walls of glass; the clean, rectilinear lines; the large, open spaces that connect with the outdoors — along with an abundance of natural teak, cedar, mahogany and lapis lazuli floors that soften what some see as the somewhat sleek but sterile Modernist aesthetic. The asking price for this striking new listing is $5,950,000. “The design here is minimalist and Zen-like, where less is more. That is a sign of the times. Not only is the bedroom of Quarry Lake [aka 28 Baylis Lane] entirely walled with glass, where you look out at the tops of trees over a quarry and a waterfall — but the mas-

14

ter bedroom shower is cantilevered over the quarry and spring-fed lake so that you have a feeling of standing over the quarry,” added Shepherd. “The shower is glassed in as well: it is like being on an exterior, glassed-in elevator, except in this case, you have nothing but nature surrounding you. We are seeing a real resurgence of people wanting to live close to nature like this, but with high design and lots of glass to bring the outdoors in.” The buyers’ reactions to good design are not always easy to pinpoint, but cumulatively result in a general positive impression to which they react. “The attention we pay to window placement and size, how the rooms are trimmed, or how we put the mechanical services in so that there aren’t vents in the middle of a wall somewhere — that is what we call good design,” said Bill McGuiness, a partner with Palmer Hill Partners, developer of the 20-acre Nantucketinspired Palmer Hill Homes in Stamford, on the Old Greenwich border. “Taken together, these elements create an atmosphere — an overall emotional reaction that this is something they prefer, although they may not understand exactly why.” Palmer Hill has flourished in this difficult residential market at least in part because of the attention to design detail in each of its condo and townhouse units. “Often, design creates the first impression when they walk in — when the layout of a place just feels right. Buyers really are all about layout and

floor plan, and not as much about curb appeal as you might think,” McGuiness continued. “Sales have continued strongly for us through the bad market because people feel they want to live here when they first walk in — while other communities, with less attention to detail and a less design-oriented approach, have suffered.” Good design can even coax a premium price out of a sophisticated buyer. Located on the Connecticut River in Essex, Conn., 20 Benson Lane is a relatively small (1,631-square-foot) home that is filled with compelling design elements — a vaulted curved ceiling, a wall of windows, an infinity pool and a sweeping curved staircase that stretches up to a covered observatory — all on a 1.67-acre lot with 200 feet of direct waterfront on the river. Designed by Centerbrook Architects, the home is perfect as a second home, or a weekend retreat. “The windows make you feel like you are floating, and the curved spaces give a unique affect, as if you are walking inside a piece of art,” said Karen Stephens, a broker with Page Taft Real Estate in Guilford, Conn. “In this price range, where you are paying almost $1,495,000 million for a 1,600-squarefoot home, it will take a special buyer who recognizes the value of quality construction and good design with a great view and graceful architecture. It is a very simple house, but when you see the windows and the curves in the interior, the design elements really take over.” Bauhaus is almost synonymous with Modernist 20th-century design. Built in 1937, 39 Penny Lane in Scarsdale is the oldest and largest of the three remaining examples of Bauhaus architecture in Westchester. Built by Paul Doering, who studied at the German Bauhaus School of Art and Design, the 5,400-square-foot house is notable for its stainless steel floating staircase ascending next to a wall of Italian glass block, and its original cherrywood details throughout, including a spectacular fireplace mantel in the living room. There is also a floating cherrywood dining room wall that

is designed to rotate 90 degrees on tracks to open the living room and dining room into one large dramatic space for entertaining. The original finished basement comes with the original pizza oven. With an asking price of $1,850,000, the house also comes with eight bedrooms, of which six are on the second floor. “We are seeing Modernist architecture coming back in a strong way, especially with potential buyers coming up from the city,” noted Angela Retalny, an associate broker with Julia B. Fee Sotheby’s International Realty. “They are interested in Modernist design and open, expansive layouts. The fact that you have six bedrooms on the second level — that is really hard to find for a house that is priced under $2 million.” Another modern home, this one on 5.5 acres along Howland Lake in Bedford Corners, was designed by the New Canaan firm of Eliot Noyes, one of the renowned Harvard Five. Built in 1987, 20 Deer Knoll is notable for its stone-walled art gallery, which runs the length of the approximately 4,500-square-foot home. Originally listed at $8 million during the real estate boom, 20 Deer Knoll is now listing for $5,995,000. “Four or five years ago, when the nesting concept was popular, everyone seemed to want the traditional Colonial,” said Camille Branca, a real estate sales agent at Ginnel Real Estate in Bedford Hills. “I see a trend now toward more modern homes and to modern design concepts shown in places like the Decoration & Design building in Manhattan, where you will find designers reaching back into the 1970s and early 1980s for their inspiration. The buyers are looking for these same clean and natural elements — natural stone, natural wood and lots of glass — instead of the more traditional 10,000-squarefoot Colonial with more luxurious interior fabrics.” A new listing, this one in Mamaroneck for $1,295,000, is located directly in nature — on the famed Leatherstocking Trail, which links New Rochelle to Mamaroneck with a net-

work of walking paths. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, 18 Leatherstocking Lane is a contemporary home — itself unusual for the neighborhood — with a large 29-by-30-foot pool with attached spa surrounded by a three-level garden. “This really has a Hamptons feel, except it is less than a 40-minute train ride to Grand Central,” said Penny Weiner, a residential real estate broker with Julia B. Fee Sotheby’s International Realty. “Coupled with the design element of a curved stairway to the pool area, and a suspended dining room that overlooks the downstairs, it is a perfect place for entertaining — and, with all the windows, enjoying the passing of the seasons. It is contemporary and warm at the same time, a

tribute to the design sense of the owner, and a wonderful escape from the city.” One of the most highly regarded homes in Greenwich went on sale earlier this summer. Located on 18 acres at 408 North Street, the château was built from 1910 to 1913 by the heiress to the Diamond Match and Goodyear Tire fortune as a French government– sanctioned replica of the Petit Trianon on the grounds of the Palace of Versailles. “It is probably one of the most dramatic houses in Greenwich,” said Brad Hvolbeck, owner of Prudential Brad Hvolbeck Real Estate, who currently has four Greenwich listings on the market worth a total of more than $100 million. “This is not new architec-

ture, but, as a faithful reproduction of one of the world’s most recognizable addresses, it is certainly high design from a bygone era one century ago.” The $39 million mansion, which has not been on the market for more than 60 years, also comes with a guesthouse cottage and greenhouse garden designed in the 1970s by the renowned classical architect Allan Greenberg to match the neo-Classical architecture of 18th-century France. “The resulting reproduction is still stunning,” added Hvolbeck. “At first glance, one instantly recognizes the Petit Trianon from the gardens of Versailles. This is what good design can do.” ✤

A

t first glance, one instantly recognizes the Petit Trianon from the gardens of Versailles. After receiving permission from the French government to replicate one of France’s national treasures, Laura Robinson, heiress to the Diamond Match and Goodrich Rubber fortunes, hired New York architects, J. Edwin R. Carpenter and Walter D. Blair, and a fantasy became a reality. Constructed between 1910 and 1913, it is now on the market for the first time in over 40 years. Petit Trianon Deux is a scaled down, though nearly identical copy of the original. Positioned on over 18 beautifully private manicured acres in mid-country Greenwich, this meticulously maintained 12,000 square foot residence is complemented by a charming two bedroom guest house, separate garages, stables complete with staff quarters, potting shed, greenhouse, elegant pool and tennis court.
