HighFell—An Architect-Designed Courtyard House on 3.5 Acres in Stone Ridge
Destination Hudson Valley | July 21, 2026
HighFell is the first of three residences at RidgeVale—sited on the highest, most open clearing on the ridge, on three and a half acres with filtered Catskill views to the horizon.
Designed by INC Architecture & Design and to be built by Rondack Construction, the house is a single, deliberate volume wrapped around a private courtyard. Living, dining, and kitchen open to the ridge; the glass is sized to frame specific things rather than to impress. Three bedrooms and two and a half baths across 2,730 square feet, the primary suite set apart by a glazed passage—a quiet layout for people who work from the house or host without noise.
Materials are chosen to settle into the site over time: dark corrugated metal and warm-stained pine outside; honed concrete floors with radiant heat, warm wood, and stone within. Nothing is meant to look new for long. Rooms are arranged around light at different hours—open through the day, contained at night.
Van Derburgh Close is a quiet lane in the Rondout Valley: 12 minutes to High Falls, 20 to Kingston, about ninety to Manhattan, with Mohonk, Minnewaska, and the Ashokan close at hand. New construction. All images are architectural renderings, for illustration only. Offered at $2,795,000.
