Welcome to this charming country estate sitting on a beautifully landscaped 1 acre property, just 20 minutes from the George Washington Bridge. This versatile space offers a rare combination of rustic countryside charm and easy NYC accessibility, perfect for productions looking for a country feel without the long drive.
Located in the quiet, tree lined neighborhood of Closter, New Jersey, the area is film friendly with a peaceful residential setting. The property offers ample space for crew parking and equipment staging on the grounds.
The exterior of the home features a striking dark façade with a classic brown roof and craftsman style architectural details. The property has incredible landscaping which includes stone pathways, a gazebo, perennial gardens, a vegetable garden, and a stream, offering endless settings for outdoor shoots.
You can enter the front red brick entrance, or through the mudroom entrance which is off the porch. The mudroom is charming with distinctive brick flooring, coat hooks, and a beautiful wooden front door. This space provides a great transitional area with a lot of character.
The living room features a cozy fireplace, warm toned furnishings, and gorgeous hardwood floors throughout. The space has a welcoming country feel with plenty of natural light.
The kitchen is bright and modern with white cabinetry, a large island with bar stool seating, stainless steel appliances, and stylish pendant lighting. The island also functions as a breakfast bar and creates a strong visual focal point.
The formal dining room offers an elegant setting with a chandelier, large windows that flood the space with natural light. This space works well for dinner party scenes or family settings, and has a great view of the modern kitchen as well.
The staircase showcases beautiful wooden railings with craftsman style detailing and connects the main level to the upper floor.
The upper level features a bright, open living area with an attic-style ceiling. A contemporary living room with built-in bookshelves adds both style and functionality.
The lower level includes a spacious recreation / living room with comfortable seating and a staircase, providing an additional space for crew and gear. There is a door that leads outside, to underneath the deck and could be used for easy load in and load out.
Outside, the property truly stands out. The 1 acre grounds include a covered stone patio, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, a sauna, garage, stone stairs and a chicken coop. The stream running through the property adds a unique natural element that is rare to find this close to New York City.
