Best of the Week
This week, we’re showcasing not one, not two, but THREE breathtaking designs by acclaimed architects! This is a first for our Best of the Week newsletter, and we’re super excited. We have a hunch that the stunning property at 5 Tavano Road is the work of the brilliant Henry Wenning. This gem is tucked away in the Robinwood Historic District, a treasure trove of 21 mid-century modern homes. Wenning’s signature style of geometric massing, post-and-beam construction, and large window expanses are evident, but we’ll let you be the judge!
And there’s more! The grandeur of Charles Winter’s design can be seen at 155 Tweed, but we can’t overlook 10 Bridge Creek Road! Constructed in the 1980s, this property blends modern and new age design so seamlessly, you might mistake it for a mid-century modern. The architect behind this masterpiece, Matthew Bialecki, is a 7-time AIA (American Institute of Architects) award winner. If these three aren’t enough, you’ll just need to wait till next week…

5 Tavano Road
Ossining, NY
Imagine the thrill you get while sailing over the water in a totally quiet and private location. That’s what you’ll feel when you enter this extraordinary Mid Century Modern house that’s positioned directly on a secluded pond surrounded by lush greenery. What makes the experience even more powerful is that the living room and surrounding deck come to a point so you feel like you’re on the bow of a ship. Looking for a one-of-a kind home that will “wow” and impress your family and friends? This is it! The house has a beautifully functional layout: eat-in kitchen, dining room, den, plus a master bedroom suite with a walk-in closet and full bathroom, and two additional bedrooms. The finished basement has an open living space, a smaller room that would make a perfect home office, plus lots of storage space, not to mention a huge 2-car garage. But, honestly, you’ll spend most of your time in the living room and deck just soaking up the view from 14 sets of sliding glass doors.
