45 Mallard Lake Rd, Pound Ridge
What’s to like?
With so many jaw-dropping features, this sleek, elegant contemporary tucked into the hillside on four heavenly acres overlooking Mallard Lake leaves you hard-pressed to decide what’s most impressive. The private serene lakeside setting? The indoor-outdoor open, airy design with a massive floor-to-ceiling stone living room fireplace? The 3,332 square-foot two-bedroom, three-bath glass-walled guest suite in its own separate structure that could just as easily morph into an in-law suite or a music studio? Or, what just may be the pièce de résistance, the spectacular glass-enclosed indoor pool and solarium? Designed by the late contemporary architect and builder (and long-time Pound Ridge resident) Vuko Tashkovich, known for his light-filled geometric-inspired masterpieces (many of them in Pound Ridge), this slice of heaven offers incredible feasts for the eyes—both indoors and out.
“He knew the area well and was known for taking advantage of the surrounding beauty and topography,” says listing agent Janice Bergstein of the renowned architect.
What’s not?
The seclusion may be ideal for some, but not appealing to others.
