From the Agent: "Welcome to Deck House. The iconic midcentury home is sited back on 11-plus acres of meadow, wildflower fields, trails, and forest with a fenced organic garden, a two-bedroom, vintage-inspired pool house and a gunite pool. All just minutes to the charming village of Millbrook. The design features post-and-beam construction, the gable ends fitted with large panes of glass, generous overhangs à la Frank Lloyd Wright, mahogany accents, and vaulted cedar ceilings. The current owners have balanced this midcentury aesthetic with many new upgrades including new windows and skylights that allow light to flood the space."
