Property Description
Is there a Mid-Century Modern estate more in tune with the Delaware River Valley than this 1960 Jules Gregory masterpiece? Designed as his personal residence and studio, the two buildings stand as sculpture on a private 10-acre property. Voted one of the 10 Best Houses in America by Architectural Record, the main house offers ingenious versatility in a modest 1,664 square feet of living area. In every respect, this home embraces its surroundings with walls of glass, wood and stone masterfully at play in open-plan design. The curvilinear (double conoid) roof hovers over the walls separated by a clerestory. Masterful variations in elevation create a series of interwoven spaces. Site-quarried stone walls are a substantial rustic element in the main residence and separate the public and private spaces. As a stylistic counterpoint to the main house, the guest house is a rectilinear design with exposed ceiling beams, strong core, and large fireplace. Surrounding the core is an open floor plan with great flexibility and views out to the grounds. The guest quarters include a kitchenette and an updated bath. Renowned New Hope woodworker and furniture designer George Nakashima created some of the home's original furniture. The Gregory Residence is a must-see for the buyer seeking the clean lines of Mid-century Modern design in a private location. Enjoy the simple commute to Princeton, New York, and Philadelphia and the restaurants, galleries and shops of New Hope and Lambertville.
