231 High Falls Road, Saugerties, NY 12477

There is something pretty great about being the first person to live in a house. Set on just over two acres in Saugerties, this brand-new home pairs clean, modern design with dramatic vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, easy one-level living, and thoughtful energy-efficient systems, plus a huge loft that gives the house an unexpected amount of flexibility.The main level is bright, open, and designed around the way people actually live upstate. Soaring vaulted ceilings and exposed beams give the main living space incredible volume and character, while oversized Andersen windows bring in tons of natural light and connect the interiors to the surrounding landscape. White oak floors add warmth throughout, and the kitchen anchors the open living and dining spaces with rich walnut cabinetry, creating a material palette that feels elevated but still completely at home in the Hudson Valley.All three bedrooms are conveniently located on the main level, making true one-level living an option. Upstairs, the oversized loft feels almost like its own private wing. With a full bathroom on this level, the possibilities really open up. Create a home office and media room, an art or yoga studio, a private space for weekend guests, or simply an entire second living area away from the main floor. Its the kind of flex space that allows the house to evolve along with you.And because everything here is brand new, what you dont see is just as important as what you do. A standing-seam metal roof, high-efficiency cold-climate heat pumps, an ENERGY STAR heat-pump water heater, thoughtfully designed plumbing, modern electrical systems, and an EV charger were all chosen with efficiency, longevity, and easy ownership in mind.Outside, just over two acres give you the breathing room you came upstate for. A huge deck extends the living space outdoors with plenty of room for dining, grilling, lounging, and long summer evenings with friends. Beyond it, the property offers room for gardens, a firepit, or simply more space to enjoy the landscape around you.And then theres Saugerties. Spend Saturday morning wandering the shops and cafés of the Village, grab dinner at Miss Lucys Kitchen, coffee at Olsen & Company, or head out for a night at The Red Onion. Explore the Saugerties Lighthouse, hike along the Hudson at Falling Waters Preserve, wander the incredible bluestone landscape at Opus 40, or catch a movie at the historic Orpheum Theater. Woodstock, Kingston, the Catskill Mountains, skiing, hiking, swimming holes, and some of the best of the Hudson Valley are all within easy reach. 95 miles north of the George Washington Bridge.
