An architecturally striking estate on the waterfront in New York’s Hyde Park was just listed for $25 million.

The exclusive 19,463-square-foot home at 46 Ledgerock Lane sits on a 10-acre lot and borders the esteemed Vanderbilt Mansion, with unparalleled views of the Hudson River. It’s actually one of the few houses to stand directly along the river’s shores.

“The home is built into the ledgerock that sits right on the Hudson, hence the name,” says listing agent Stacey Pinkas, referring to the street address. “Under current law, a 100-foot setback is now required, so homes like this cannot be built anymore.”

Because the home is adjacent to acreage that is under land conservation, the property’s majestic surroundings are well protected.

And perhaps most significantly, the home itself is a work of modern art.

Built in 2009 by the current owners and designed by the architect Lee Ledbetter, the eight-bedroom estate is filled with soaring ceilings and lush interiors set in rare wood, marble, and stone.

An outdoor spa, fire pit, and extensive terraces with radiant heat all contribute to a sense of luxury living—an aesthetic that continues inside the bright and spacious home.

“The primary bathroom has an eight-foot-wide, golden-travertine soaking tub,” says Pinkas. “One of the bathrooms has red onyx from Afghanistan. When the home was built, they had a stonecutter on site since so much stone was being used.”

Other amenities include both indoor and outdoor pools, a gym, theater, an outdoor kitchen, a dock, and even a private helipad.

And somehow that’s not all.

“There’s also a safe room, with biometric technology to unlock certain doors,” says Pinkas. “The estate has staff as well as guest quarters. It even has a car wash!”

The estate is accessible via car, seaplane, or helicopter. It’s just a 15-minute drive from Rhinebeck and two hours from New York City.
