About 68 Root Avenue
Welcome to 68 Root, an elegant retreat for the discerning modernist. This handsomely designed modern contemporary is your 6000+ square ft glass box surrounded by nature only 60 miles from midtown Manhattan, or a 1.5 hour train ride from Southeast on Metro North. Light will envelope you thanks to thoughtful architectural feature windows such as a 16 panel insulated glass feature and clerestory windows throughout. Enjoy verdant views of rolling hills and a beautiful lake from your primary bedroom, office or roof deck. This one-of-a kind property offers dramatic landscaping with terraced stone walls, stainless steel railings, a firepit and a Japanese garden. Private yet close to a variety of lifestyles. Root Ave. is located only 5m to the Centennial Gold Club, 10m to Veterans Memorial Park for summer concert evenings, 15m to Lake Mahopac, 30m to Candlewood Lake, Ridgefield, Danbury, Bedford and Katonah. Adjacent lots not included but also for sale.
