About 760 Ohayo Mountain Road
Ohayo Mountain House is a home for people who notice things: sunlight moving across polished concrete in the late afternoon, the sound of water at night, the weight of a beautifully made door. Designed by Amin Tadj Studio and set on approximately 2.22 acres in Glenford, just six minutes from Woodstock, this exceptional new-construction home centers on a courtyard that brings the landscape into nearly every room. Wherever you are in the house, you have a view of trees, sky, or the quiet open space at its heart. Leading architecture and design publications have already recognized the home, including Dwell, Interior Design, and Architect.
Designed to approach Passive House standards, Ohayo Mountain House is exceptionally quiet, comfortable, and energy-efficient in every season. The exterior is clad in thermally modified Finnish Lunawood, while European triple-pane windows frame the surrounding woods and provide exceptional insulation. A two-zone energy recovery ventilation system supplies fresh, filtered air, and the home operates entirely on high-efficiency electric power with infrastructure ready for future photovoltaic solar.
Inside, the materials speak for themselves. Polished concrete floors flow through the open living and dining spaces beneath exposed Glulam beams that follow the home's distinctive undulating roofline. Custom Reform CPH cabinetry anchors the kitchen, while the bedrooms feature Belgian white oak. Bathrooms feature Japanese tile, solid oak vanities of French design, and heated radiant floors. At the center of the living space, a Stûv wood-burning stove creates a natural gathering place on cool Catskills evenings.
The primary suite occupies its own private wing, with an en-suite bath, generous dressing area, and doors opening directly onto the courtyard. Two additional bedrooms provide privacy for family and guests, each with a direct relationship to the home's central outdoor space. Downstairs, a flexible media and guest room with its own connection to the lawn can serve equally well as a screening room, studio, home office, or additional guest space.
Outside, the land slopes gently through the woods toward a small creek along the rear property line. A stone-lined pool anchors the outdoor living spaces, while a fire pit creates an inviting place for long evenings under the stars. Stone paths move through the landscape, connecting the house, courtyard, pool, and woods and encouraging you to experience the property at your own pace.
And then there is Woodstock, just minutes away. The village offers celebrated restaurants, independent shops, galleries, and an arts community that has drawn artists, musicians, and writers for generations. The Ashokan Reservoir and Rail Trail are nearby, while the surrounding Catskills offer hiking, swimming, skiing, and endless opportunities to explore the landscape in every season. New York City is less than two hours away, making this escape unusually accessible.
Ohayo Mountain House is a rare opportunity to own a truly considered piece of contemporary architecture, where high-performance construction, exceptional materials, thoughtful design, and a deep connection to the landscape come together in a home that feels both highly sophisticated and remarkably livable.
