We’ve mentioned the work of architect and Delaware County resident Clark Sanders before on the pages of Upstater, so it’s a rare to treat to see one of his houses actually offered on the market. And this countryside retreat is…well, you’ll just have to look at the pictures. Sanders use of old and new materials gives lends his modern, streamlined look a certain warmth. Don’t be fooled by the cold-looking cement floors; they’re kept cozy with radiant heat. Includes a pond, horse barn, and 131 acres of land. Here’s an article in the NYT about Sanders’ work.
