Amidst the antique and Tudor homes of Westchester County, this modern, new-construction home in Irvington, NY, doesn’t look anything like its neighbors. “There’s truly nothing else like it currently available in Irvington,” says Dalia Valdes, associate real estate broker from William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty in Rye, NY. 

The fully custom design-forward contemporary was built from the ground up in 2020 by Greg Sharp of Case Development, with the interior design curated by the homeowner, Steve Soleimani. The design fuses Nordic barn and Japanese elements to create a look all its own. “Everything has been thoughtfully considered,” says Valdes. Radiant heat throughout and 14-zone climate control use the latest technology to keep each room comfortable. Meanwhile, architectural elements like floating walls and the LaCantina zero-post glass system open the living space to the outdoor terrace to allow for easy indoor/outdoor living. It was also designed with an oversized heated garage, heated gutters and smart home technology. “It’s a home that prioritizes both performance and design, offering a level of craftsmanship and innovation that stands apart in the rivertowns,” says Valdes. 

Natural white oak, statement Arabescato stone counters and professional Wolf and Sub Zero appliances define the open kitchen and living room, as floor-to-ceiling glass walls provide views of the surrounding trees. “The kitchen and living area naturally become the heart of the home,” says Valdes. “It’s where everything comes together: the light, the materials and the connection to the outdoors. It’s an incredibly welcoming space that was clearly designed for gathering and entertaining, yet still feels intimate for everyday living.” A bright and modern breakfast nook has a custom built-in banquette. The open steel and oak staircase in the double height entry invites you upstairs. 

“Today’s buyers are looking for homes that feel complete, intentional and easy to live in, and this home delivers on all fronts,” adds Valdes. “It’s turnkey, architecturally distinct, and offers the flexibility of open, light-filled spaces that adapt to modern living.” Upstairs, the primary suite is one of five bedrooms and has a marble bathroom with double vanity, steam shower, freestanding soaking tub and adjacent custom dressing room. In the bedroom, a working gas fireplace is cozy on winter nights while floor-to-ceiling windows give the effect you are “floating above the trees.” 

On the lower level, versatile spaces provide room for a media lounge, wellness studio, gym, creative workspace, or additional guest quarters with direct access to landscaped grounds. 

“What’s hardest to capture in a listing is the feeling of being inside the home,” says Valdes. “There’s a calm, almost retreat-like quality to it the way the light moves, the way the spaces flow, and how naturally the indoors extend outward.” She notes the multi-tier decking, backyard privacy and the home’s walkability to town shops and restaurants, all features, she says, which continue to be top priorities in the market. The home is a seven- to 10-minute walk to the village and waterfront, train and schools, and only moments from the Aqueduct trail. “The town of Irvington itself attracts buyers looking for a more understated, refined Rivertown experience,” she adds, noting the community’s highly rated school system, easy commute to the city, sense of community and charming village center set along the Hudson River. 

“It’s a house that was clearly designed to be lived in and experienced over time, quietly sophisticated, deeply comfortable, and uniquely its own,” says Valdes.
