A striking showcase of high-performance craftsmanship, Millbrook Modern embodies the essence of contemporary design with a refined nod to midcentury aesthetics. Created by a visionary boutique design-build firm, this sleek riverside sanctuary blends bold architectural lines with bespoke finishes, offering a thoughtfully curated retreat for those who seek style, exclusivity, and effortless modern living.
The House Tour. Stepping through a breezy entry, one is struck by dramatic ceilings and playful light. An open living area houses the chef’s kitchen featuring a sprawling island with views stretching all the way to the river, and the most loungeable sunken living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace with a custom designed tile surround. Adjacent to this area, a flexible room with regal pocket doors offers versatile options as an intimate dining room or a spacious third bedroom. An oversized glass door seamlessly transitions to the rear deck with woodsy views and soothing sounds of the babbling Mill Brook, for ease of indoor-outdoor living.
Sited with precision to maximize the property’s best assets, Millbrook Modern spans nearly 1,700 square feet of thoughtfully designed space, all on one level. A wide corridor, accented with warm wood walls and bold geometric windows, leads past a full bathroom showcasing custom finishes, and then transitions into the private quarters. A very private queen-sized bedroom boasts generous ceiling height built-ins for ultimate storage. Just beyond lies the primary suite secluded from it all. Enter through a dedicated dressing area, where the king-sized bedroom awaits, accompanied by a second walk-in closet. The ensuite bath offers a spa-like experience, complete with double sinks, shower, separate soaking tub, and heated floors.
Practicality is woven into the design, with a main floor laundry area and a bonus den nook that offers the ideal space for a private office or screening room. The potential for expansion extends beyond the main level, with nearly 1,700 square feet of unfinished, full-height basement space. Imagine creating more guest space, a lounge, home gym, or even a studio workshop.
Design highlights include highly custom built-ins and millwork, a curated selection of vintage and modern finishes, rounded bullnose corners, and white oak hardwood floors complemented by Mamoleum solid floors made from linseed oil. An advanced HVAC system with a ducted heat pump ensures a comfortable living environment. Completed in 2025, this home boasts construction quality that matches its exquisite interiors.
The Grounds. The stage is set as you enter the gates of Black Forest, a sought after private community offering residents exclusive access to 1,100 acres of wild preserve, mapped hiking trails, swimming holes, fishing and stunning ravines that serve as an extension of one’s backyard. A short drive through the woods leads you to this modern refuge in a natural environment.
Thoughtfully sited at the end of a meandering driveway for ultimate privacy, this secluded retreat spans three lush acres with nearly 200 feet of frontage along the Mill Brook.
Here, serenity prevails. Immerse yourself in a restorative plunge after a riverside sauna, or relish your morning coffee on the back deck accompanied by the gentle cadence from the babbling brook.
The Area. Millbrook Modern is tucked away from it all and yet so close to conveniences and adventure as you explore Sullivan County Catskills and the Upper Delaware River Valley. Just minutes from the Kadampa Meditation Center, Homestead School, and Circle Park; 10 minutes to Barryville or Eldred for groceries, farmers market, coffee, dining, libations, and river rafting, and less than 15 minutes from the renowned Forestburgh Playhouse and kayaking on the Rio Reservoir. Main Street Narrowsburg is merely 30 minutes away, and Port Jervis’ amenities and train to Penn Station are a 20-minute drive over the scenic Hawk’s Nest. Escape - and enjoy - New York City in just 2 hours by car.
Introducing Millbrook Modern, from the creative force behind Wishbone Design-Build. “Where a cheeky riverside sauna is simply a way of life.”
