Defined by soaring glass walls, cylindrical forms, and expansive terraces, this striking modern sanctuary delivers architectural character and flexible everyday luxury.

This 1985 residence stands as a study in geometry, light, and landscape. Privately set across 3.09 lush acres within the Bedford Central School District, the 7,565-square-foot sanctuary seamlessly pairs mid-century structural art with contemporary luxury.

Vuko Tashkovich’s defining hallmarks—long horizontal planes, sculptural cylindrical forms, clerestory windows, and dramatic walls of glass—frame expansive, light-filled living spaces across three finished levels. A gallery-like foyer leads to restored herringbone floors and a grand living room anchored by a stone fireplace, built-in library wall, and wet bar.
