Perched high on 5.32 private acres with breathtaking, distant panoramic views of the Taconic Range and Berkshire Mountains, this contemporary home has been completely transformed by a top-to-bottom renovation. Seamlessly blending chic modern upgrades with dramatic architectural bones, this turn-key residence offers utmost privacy on a scenic country lane, yet still provides incredible convenience; located just minutes from the Taconic State Parkway, less than 10 minutes to Pine Plains, and a 20-minute drive in either direction to Rhinebeck and Millerton. Spanning nearly 3,000 square feet, the residence unfolds across a light-filled, open-concept floor plan designed to celebrate its extraordinary setting. The dramatic great room serves as the heart of the home, anchored by soaring vaulted ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling exposed brick feature wall, and a wood-burning stove. Expansive walls of glass frame the surrounding landscape and open seamlessly to a generous entertaining deck, creating a natural extension of the living space and capturing breathtaking mountain views in every season. The beautifully appointed kitchen combines timeless design with modern functionality, featuring custom shaker cabinetry, a substantial center island, quartz countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. Adjacent living and dining spaces flow effortlessly, creating an ideal environment for both intimate gatherings and larger-scale entertaining. The main level is anchored by a private primary suite with a walk-in closet and direct access to the deck, offering a serene connection to the surrounding landscape. A dedicated office, laundry and pantry room, and powder room complete the floor. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a flex space, and two renovated baths are arranged around a dramatic overlook to the great room below, while a secret bonus space offers endless possibilities as a fitness studio, media room, playroom, or additional office. Beyond the cosmetic artistry, the property features a comprehensive utility overhaul engineered for modern reliability and comfort. The home's infrastructure is anchored by a high-efficiency dual-zone Carrier climate control system with central air and heat pumps, an energy-saving ventilation system, and a robust 200-amp electrical setup backed by a 20KW Kohler standby generator. Pristine water quality is guaranteed by a multi-stage filtration system including UV purification and advanced reverse osmosis lines, while a smart home network of eero mesh Wi-Fi, hardwired Cat 6 connections, Ring cameras, and Nest smart detectors delivers ultimate peace of mind. A rare offering that combines contemporary design, turnkey condition, and spectacular Hudson Valley views, 572 Hicks Hill Road presents an opportunity to enjoy elevated country living in one of the region's most desirable locations.
