"House No. 5" is part of Philwold, a quiet five-home enclave designed by Eugene Schoen for members of the Wechsler family in the late 1930s. Schoen created a compound Usonian in spirit — channeling Frank Lloyd Wright's belief that a home should grow from its landscape. The house delivers on that promise with warm wood paneling, generous proportions, oak floors, and abundant natural light. Thoughtfully sited around Gilman Pond, No. 5 offers a rare combination of privacy, water access, and architectural pedigree.
The entry sets the tone with a built-in bench-and-hook nook and powder room with bold wallpaper. Beyond, the living room opens wide — wood-paneled and anchored by a wood stove with brick surround — with a windowed dining alcove at the far end overlooking the pond. The den, clad in the same warm pine, works equally well as a media room, office, or ground floor bedroom, with a connecting full bath adding flexibility.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated: cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, a 6-burner Wolf cooktop, and a butcher block island, plus a striking wall of steel-framed frosted glass cabinetry. A discreet door reveals a tucked-away bar with sink and beverage fridge — cocktail station or butler's pantry, your call. French doors open to the front patio and a pretty garden, not to mention a recently-added barrel sauna. The finished basement includes a rec room with pool table, laundry, and storage.
Upstairs are four bedrooms (one is shown as a drool-worthy office featuring two walls of windows with water and treetop views) and two full baths. The primary is spacious with an en suite offering tub and tiled shower. Another standout bedroom features whitewashed shiplap and built-in dresser.
There are flagstone patios front and back, a fire pit overlooking the pond and a pretty waterfront clearing for hanging out or launching your kayak or canoe. The separate two-car garage is a really useful bonus.
This sale includes an adjacent vacant buildable lot for added privacy and flexibility. Philwold ownership also conveys an exclusive access point to the Neversink Unique Area — a 4,500-acre preserve with spectacular river gorge with more challenging trails in for the public.
Convenient to the Forestburgh Playhouse, Bethel Woods, and the popular Forestburgh General Store.
