The challenge to fit this relatively large shed in a long, narrow garden resulted in an elongated plan.

Groovy Stone-and-Cedar Pavilion Wants $1.65M | Pound Ridge Real Estate

 

Screen%20Shot%202014-10-15%20at%201.41.05%20PM.png

Location: Hopewell, N.J.
Price: $1,650,000
The Skinny: A ’70s relic with modernist leanings in Hopewell, New Jersey, has been bouncing on and off the market since 2010. Recently relisted with Keller Williams (no, not that Keller Williams), it’s been reduced in price from $2.75M to $1.65M. The 3,750-square-foot home was designed by architect Philip Collin (no, not that guy), who was trained at Princeton and contributed a spiraling pavilion to the 1964 New York World’s Fair. For this home, built in 1970 and sited on 42 acres, Collin filled in a stone and cedar frame with white walls and large floor-to-ceiling windows. The living room at the center has a wet bar and a sunken seating area—one of those groovy and ill-fated residential relics that are so abhorred they just have to be due for a comeback—and clerestories in the interior walls that keep it and the bedrooms very bright. The carpet and the tile aren’t doing the place any favors, but that’s a pretty simple fix. Also included: a pool, a small guesthouse, and an odd, yellow-green basement.

Layers of Patina and an Artist’s Touch in a New York Colonial | Chappaqua Real Estate

The New York home of artist Jennifer Lanne and her husband Dick Lanne is equal parts family retreat and backdrop to display their work. The house and Jen’s two studios are filled with her work, which she rotates in and out on a regular basis, while Dick’s hobby as a blacksmith has yielded practical and decorative additions to the space. These are layered in with finds from flea markets, antique shows and, occasionally, the side of the road, plus pillows and collections. The result is a home that would make a minimalist cringe but is a perfect setting for the things both of them love.
