About This Home
An Architectural Masterpiece — The Glass Barn Published in Architectural Record (1988) and reimagined in 2020, The Glass Barn is a landmark of modern design that marries dramatic architecture with effortless livability. Originally designed by Richard Olcott and Todd Schliemann of Polshek & Partners, this striking residence is defined by 28-foot soaring ceilings, expansive open spaces, and walls of glass that frame the surrounding landscape as living art. At the heart of the home, the great room showcases a floor-to-ceiling concrete wood-burning fireplace, polished concrete radiant-heat floors with reclaimed hardwood accents. The expansive chef’s kitchen is both functional and dramatic, with soapstone countertops, diamond-plate custom steel cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, and a seating area with a wood burning fireplace. A 1,200-bottle climate-controlled glass walled wine room completes the entertaining core. The primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself, featuring a circular glass-walled sitting room with a suspended fireplace, spa-like bath with skylit stone shower, and a boutique-like dressing room. Additional highlights of the home include a circular-walled library, a studio, office, four bedrooms, three and a half baths, a full-floor sun drenched lower level recreation room and an attached 2 car garage. Set on 6.3 acres of rolling meadow and mature trees, the property is as serene as it is private. A two-acre wildflower field with meandering paths provides a changing canvas with each season, enhanced by professional landscaping, lighting and irrigation. The resort-caliber amenities rival those of a private club: Black-bottom heated pool with sun shelf & spa, Pickleball/platform tennis court & bocce court, Glass greenhouse - perfect for the plant enthusiast while doubling as a year round grand entertaining space with seating for 20 and dual wood burning fireplaces, Expansive lawns, multiple outdoor dining areas, and a large motor court for guest parking. The Glass Barn is more than a residence — it is a published work of art, a stage for entertaining, and a retreat for ultimate privacy. An architectural icon that continues to evolve without losing its original vision.
