189 Sutherland Rd, Chatham, New York 12184

Set on more than 56 acres of rolling meadows, with the Catskills rising in the distance, Sutherland Estate is a private country compound built for those who take their retreats seriously. A long paved drive announces the arrival: a 5,760-square-foot home inspired by classic Greek Revival architecture, recently renovated with the kind of restraint and craftsmanship that reads as effortless.

A standing-seam metal roof, radiant heated bathroom floors, energy-efficient heat pumps, a whole-home generator, and a fully integrated smart home system for lighting, temperature, and security bring the property firmly into the present. Newly refinished white oak floors run underfoot; a reimagined lighting plan, with recessed fixtures and statement pieces from Arteriors and Hinkley, casts the home in a warmer light.

The main level is designed for gathering, and for looking outward. Living and dining rooms flow together beneath sweeping views of the ponds and mountains beyond, anchored by a kitchen built for serious cooking: a custom island, a walk-in pantry, a counter-depth panelized Sub-Zero, and a full suite of professional-grade appliances. French doors open onto a wide stone patio and outdoor kitchen, framed by landscaped gardens and open lawn. A cherry-paneled library, original to the house and warmed by a wood-burning stove, sits beside a three-season sunroom overlooking the pond — two rooms built for slowing down. A living room with its own gas fireplace completes the floor.

Upstairs, the primary suite functions as its own retreat, with a gas fireplace, two walk-in closets, and a bathroom finished with a soaking tub and steam shower. Three additional bedrooms, a guest media room, two full baths, and a laundry room round out the level. The lower level offers a kitchenette, sauna, and full bath.

Outdoors, the grounds are as much a part of the estate as the house itself: a footbridge crosses the aerated pond, a raised garden bed and a potting shed suggest a working landscape, and a newly built, insulated carriage house offers space for vehicles now, with room to become a barn or ADU later. An attached three-car heated garage adds further storage.

Sutherland Estate sits just outside the villages of Chatham and Kinderhook, within easy reach of Hudson and Great Barrington, offering a rare thing: a fully renovated, move-in-ready home offering true seclusion without sacrificing convenience, in one of the Hudson Valley’s most storied corners.
