ESCAPE BROOKLYN – Rockbound in Woodbury, NY

The home’s layout unfolds through a collection of distinctive spaces designed for both gathering and retreat. A formal den, library, home office, media room, and wine cellar provide flexibility for everyday living, while an interior courtyard creates a natural extension of the surrounding rooms. Above, a dramatic catwalk overlooks the skylit dining room before leading to the private primary suite. The second floor of the original carriage house is among the home’s most memorable spaces, where soaring ceilings, massive hand-hewn beams, original three-over-eight windows, and an oversized stone fireplace create an extraordinary gathering room with direct access to the pool terrace.

Outside, the grounds continue the property’s story. Mature gardens surround a heated saltwater pool, while historic stone walls—built from rock found on the property—trace the landscape. The original ice house and root cellar, now repurposed as a smokehouse, remain as reminders of the estate’s early years, while a productive 120-year-old grapevine continues to bear fruit each season.

Though Rockbound feels worlds away from the city, Manhattan is just an hour south. Storm King Art Center, Harriman State Park, Bear Mountain, West Point, and the Hudson Valley’s network of restaurants, galleries, hiking trails, and river towns are all within easy reach, making the property equally suited for weekends away or full-time living.
