Mountain View Farmhouse se yon kay ansyen ki eksepsyonèl, in deplasman, ki ofri yon bel melanj de lux modèn, cham istorik ak pwovensans enpòtan.

Renovasyon li te fè pou $800,000 la kreye yon kay ki epoustouflan ak karakteristik ki nan tèt nivo pandan li respekte karakter orijinal li. Kwizin ak sal gwo ki gen miray vè ki benyen espas la nan limyè solèy la se pafè pou jwi anviwònman natirèl la. Dèrye an bwa ki te fèt a la men, miray an sab ak brik andedan, fenèt vè ki fèt ak plon ak pòt panèl klasik tout ajoute yon touche inik nan istwa kay la. Plant bèl ki nan pwopriyete a ki fè 6.5 ak se totalman prive ak genyen yon lak prive ak yon kort tenis. Gwo gazon vèt ki kote estrikti a ansanm ak magnolia ki matirite, dogwood, pye bwa béchè ki peze, ak anpil lòt espès.

Plan espasyal ki gen yon suite prensipal sou premye etaj la, ak yon den atache, plis chanm ak beny adisyonèl sou dezyèm etaj la, ansanm ak yon suite envite prive anlè garaj la fè pwopriyete sa a ideyal pou tou de lavi fanmi ak resevwa vizitè. Anplis, nivo anba ki gen yon sòti ak gwo fenèt, antre separe ak chemine, ofri opòtinite pou agrandisman fasil si yon moun ap chèche plis espas fini. Yon gwo patio an fè wòch ki sou kwizin lan ak sal gwo a, ki kouri long dèyè kay la, ap gade lak la ki pèmèt limyè solèy la antre pandan anpil nan jounen an.

Rezidan ki te la nan kòmansman 20yèm syèk la yo te rele "South Mountain Roaders", e yo te reprezante yon varyete atis ki genyen siksè, pent, eskilti (John Mowbray-Clarke), potye (Henry Varnum Poor), mizisyen, Rock (Mick Jagger) ak chantè opera (Kurt Weill ak Lotte Lenya), ekriven pou teyat (Maxwell Anderson) ak televizyon, elatriye, ki te kòmanse kite NYC nan kòmansman 20yèm syèk la, ap chèche yon lavi miyò ke yo te jwenn nan kominote atistik sa a.

Istwa pwopriyete a ajoute yon lòt kouch enterè, espesyalman ak lyen li yo ak Zukor estate, Paramount Studios, ak varyete atis ak amizman ki te vizite yon fwa. Pwoximite ak High Tor Park, yon espas 691-aker ki gen chemen randone ak opinyon sou syèl NYC a, ajoute nan atirans lan. Istwa rich zòn nan ak kominote atistik la fè l' yon kote enspire pou viv.

Li sanble vrèman tankou balans pafè ant lux, istwa, ak lanati, ideyal pou yon kay pou tout tan oswa yon evazyon nan fen semenn. Pwobableman rezidan ki pi remakab nan kominote a se Adolf Zukor, pwodiktè sinema ak youn nan twa manm fondatè Paramount Studios & Prezidan Konsèy la. 374 S Mountain Rd te fè pati yon gwo seri bilding nan Zukor estate. Pifò nan gwo zetwal Paramount yo te envite nan pwopriyete a, soti nan Mary Pickford, Rudolph Valentino, Marlene Dietrich, Mae West, Bing Crosby, Bob Hope ak anpil lòt moun. Anpil sèn nan premye fim Paramount yo te filme dirèkteman sou pwopriyete a anvan endistri a te deplase nan Los Angeles. Mountain View Farm te non Zukor estate a, e kay sa a te yon ti kay sou pwopriyete a. Kours gol ki nan bò pou pwopriyete a, se pati nan kours orijinal la ke Zukor te desen pou estate li.

Cropsey Farm, yon fèm ki vann pwodui fre, desann wout la soti nan Mountain View Farmhouse, osi byen ke Farm Dr Davie (ki BTW te youn nan fondatè montre atizay 1913 nan armory NYC a, ki te revolisyonè fason Ameriken yo te gade atizay!) ki tou pre.

Pa gen anyen tankou Mountain View Farmhouse. Kay fen semenn pafè oswa kay pou tout tan! Jwenn pa ou!

Mountain View Farmhouse is an extraordinary, turnkey, old style home, offering a beautiful blend of modern luxury, historic charm and significant provenance.

Its extensive $800,000 renovation has created a stunning home with top-of-the-line features while preserving its original character. The open-concept kitchen and great room with glass walls that bath the space in sunlight are perfect for enjoying the natural surroundings. The ancient hand-hewn beams, interior sandstone and brick walls, leaded glass window and classic panel doors all add a unique touch to the home’s story. Beautiful specimen plantings grace the 6.5 acre property which is totally private and features a private lake and tennis court. Large grass lawns surround the structure as well as mature Magnolias, Dogwood, weeping beech tree, and many other specimens.

The spacious layout with a primary suite on the first floor, with adjoining den, additional bedrooms and baths on the second level, and a private guest suite above the garage make this property ideal for both family living and hosting visitors. Plus, the walkout lower level with full-sized windows, separate entrance and fireplace, offers easy expansion opportunities if one is looking for more finished space. A very large slate patio is off the kitchen and great room, that runs along the back of the house, overlooking the lake allowing sunlight much of the day.

Early 20th century residents were called "South Mountain Roaders", and represented a array of successful artists, painters, sculptures (John Mowbray-Clarke), potters (Henry Varnum Poor), musician, Rock (Mick Jagger) and opera singers (Kurt Weill and Lotte Lenya), writers for theater (Maxwell Anderson) and television, etc., who starting leaving NYC at the turn o f the 20th century, looking for a better life which they found in this artistic community.

The property's history adds another layer of intrigue, especially with its ties to the Zukor estate, Paramount Studios, and the array of famous artists and entertainers who once visited. The proximity to High Tor Park, a 691-acre space with hiking trails and views of the NYC skyline, adds to the appeal. The area’s rich history and artistic community make it an inspiring place to live.

It truly seems like the perfect balance of luxury, history, and nature, ideal for a full-time home or weekend getaway. Probably the most noted resident in the community was Adolf Zukor, the film producer and one of the three founding members of Paramount Studios & Chairman of the Board. 374 S Mountain Rd was part of the Zukor estate's vast array of buildings. Most of Paramount's major stars were guests at the property, from Mary Pickford, Rudolph Valentino, Marlene Dietrich, Mae West, Bing Crosby, Bob Hope and many others. Many scenes from Paramount's early films were shot right on the property before the industry moved to Los Angeles. Mountain View Farm was the name of the Zukor estate, and this home was a cottage on the property. The golf course that's next to the property, is part of the original course that Zukor designed for his estate.

Cropsey Farm, a working farm that sells fresh produce is down the road from Mountain View Farmhouse, as well as Dr Davie's Farm ( who BTW was one of the founders of the 1913 art show at the NYC armory, which revolutionized the way Americans looked at art!) is close by.
