"This 3,280-square-foot house is a new build and rather minimalist without feeling cold - the cedar exteriors are sparse, but the light and warm wood of the interiors keep things from reading as sterile. There's a wood-burning stove in a living room with floor-to-ceiling windows and meadow views. The kitchen is custom, with built-ins in every direction and a hidden fridge."
"If the wrath of the Lord doesn't scare you, then this church renovation might just be the thing for you. The building dates back to 1883 and remains about as open as it was as a church - super-high ceilings included. The living room couldn't be bigger, and the aforementioned ceilings make room for a basketball hoop."
New York City residents seeking alternatives to urban living can find substantial properties in nearby areas at fraction of city costs. A minimalist 3,280-square-foot new build in Tivoli offers four bedrooms, heated saltwater pool, and pool house for $3.495 million, with meadow views and custom kitchen amenities. A renovated 1883 church in Saugerties provides six bedrooms across an expansive open floor plan with cathedral ceilings and basketball hoop for $1.325 million. Both properties offer significant savings compared to NYC real estate while maintaining reasonable commute times via Amtrak or car to the city.
