8711 Miller Hill Road Averill Park, NY 12018

Uniquely beautiful mid-century home designed by architect Ralph Rapson. Nestled in the trees and hidden from street view yet conveniently close to Albany, Troy, Saratoga, it provides a peaceful sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of the city. Huge windows allow views of the gorgeous wooded surroundings and the many wildlife who frequently visit, including deer, turkeys, foxes, owls, blue herons, and more. Every season is showcased from each room of this house. Each floor has a fireplace which makes it extra cozy in colder weather. Besides it's unique design, the house is very comfortable. Two of the three bedrooms are very large and en-suite with walk in closets. A beautiful window seat was added in the primary bedroom to provide an intimate space for reading or just gazing at the forest. All three full bathrooms have been tastefully redone and the kitchen has been updated with quartz counters, new lighting and a travertine floor. The large family room was also completely and faithfully renovated to include a gas fireplace and modern lighting. It's a terrific space to relax, enjoy reading a good book from the original floor to ceiling bookcase, or host a super bowl party for friends and family. The family room is on the ground floor and opens to the gazebo outside. This is a house that you will fall in love with. It is spacious, contemporary with a mid century twist, has amazing light in every direction, is fully and recently updated, and offers tranquility after a long day at work. There is even a large shed that can house whatever you need.
