Kay Nèf-Kare a fèt nan yon kolaborasyon plizyè ane ant atis pluridisiplinè Zak Kitnick ak achitèk renome Francesco Galetto. Nan kè li, se yon kay peyi otantik ki antoure ak vèna brutalist vil ki nan mitan syèk la ki gaye nan kraje riral Almay, Otrich, ak Skandinan. Kay la minimalist nan estrikti pou li ka sipòte yon stil de vi inevitabman maksimal – yon koleksyon atizay vaste ak mèb distenktif ap fleri nan kay sa a ansanm ak yon atelier penti ki depase, ak ekipman deyò pou eksplore lanati ki antoure yo.
Chak karakteristik kay la te konsidere pou li fonksyonèl ak plezi pou je; apre tout, ekip ki dèyè kay la pase plis pase 2 zan ap planifye yon konsepsyon ki dekouvri chak kesyon ergonomic ak anviwònman ki posib. Filosofi vi nèf-kare a, devlope nan mitan ane 1900 pa achitèk ak pwofesè enkwayab John Hejduk, se anpil santi nan distribisyon kay la ak koule espas yo.
Sou premye etaj la, gen salon doub la, zòn manje a, ak kwizin nan, tout nan yo konekte youn ak lòt ak yon chemine an mawon ak 3 gwo pòt vè ki louvri sou teras deyò a kontanple yon bèl vi. Kwizin nan gen kabinè Reform ki fèt nan Danwa, mawon Bardiglio, ak aparèy Fisher Paykel. Yon biwo/atelier pou penti, yon twalèt, yon bar sèk, ak yon sal lave konplete nivo prensipal la.
Moso achitekti santral kay la se eskalye solid blan chene ki monte nan dezyèm etaj la. 4 chanm nan tèt la, byen ke gen anpil espas, yo pi prive ak entim, chak ak gwo fenèt sou 2 bò, ki kominike ak peyaj kalm ak trankil ki deyò, e ki pataje 2 twalèt ki gwo.
Karakteristik distenktif Kay Nèf-Kare a enkli wo efikasite enèji akòz izolasyon ki depase tout estanda aktyèl, AC santral milti-zòn, planche chofe radyan, pòt enteryè solid 200 liv, aparèy Kohler an nikèl satin, lavabo fè taye, ak pyès ki nan men ak fè ak machin an kwiv solid ak nikèl satin la.

9 akr tè ki antoure kay la, pafè jan li ye, te touche yon fason ki pi piti posib. Gen zòn bo ak ouvri, avèk chemen mache ki rale nan pwopriyete a.
Kay Nèf-Kare a se sèlman 20 minit de Hudson, Great Barrington, ak Millerton ak 2 èdtan de New York City. Kay la se sèlman kèk minit de Lak Copake.

The Nine-Square House was born of a several-year-long collaboration between multi-disciplinary artist Zak Kitnick & esteemed architect Francesco Galetto. At its core, an authentic country house, it joins & (and is inspired by) the vernacular of brutalist mid-century villas peppered throughout German, Austrian, & Scandinavian rural landscapes. The home is minimalist in structure so that it may support an inevitably maximal lifestyle - an extensive art collection & distinctive furnishings thrive in this home alongside an overflowing painting studio, outdoor gear for exploring the surrounding nature.
Every feature of the home was conceived to be both functional & pleasing to the eye; after all, the team behind the house spent more than 2 years planning a design that addressed every conceivable ergonomic & environmental question. The nine-square philosophy of living, developed in the mid-1900s by the incredible architect & professor John Hejduk, is very much felt in the home's distribution & flow of spaces.
On the ground floor are the double living room, dining area, & kitchen, all flowing into each other & anchored by a marble fireplace & 3 large glass doors opening to the exterior terrace with a breathtaking view. The kitchen features Danish-designed Reform cabinetry, Bardiglio marble, & Fisher Paykel appliances. An office/painting studio, a washroom, a dry bar, & laundry room complete the main level.
The central architectural piece of the home is the solid white oak staircase leading up to the second floor. The 4 bedrooms upstairs, though spacious, are much more private & intimate, each with large windows on 2 sides, communing with the serene & quiet landscape outside, and sharing 2 sizable bathrooms.
Distinguishing features of the Nine-Square House include high energy efficiency due to insulation exceeding all current standards, multi-zone central AC, radiant heated floors, solid 200 lb interior doors, satin nickel Kohler fixtures, cast iron sinks, & solid forged & machined brass & satin nickel door hardware.


The 9 acres of land around the house, perfect as it is, has been touched as little as possible. There are wooded & open areas, with meandering walking paths trailing through the property.
The Nine-Square House is just 20 minutes from Hudson, Great Barrington, & Millerton & 2 hours from New York City. The home is just a few minutes from Copake Lake. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
