72 Urubeck Road, Tivoli, NY 12583

Welcome to Madalin Estate, a 79-acre compound across three parcels at the end of a private dead-end gravel road in Clermont, just minutes from the village of Tivoli, with 500 feet of frontage along the Roeliff Jansen Kill. At its heart is a sun-filled 1960 contemporary, a 3,370-square-foot home with five bedrooms and three baths. A 70-foot heated in-ground pool sits low in the meadow, a deep spring-fed pond is stocked with largemouth bass, and a grove of more than 100 dogwoods blooms each spring. A separate two-bedroom, one-bath cottage stands on a neighboring parcel beside the pond. The three tax parcels include 26.20 acres with the main house, 19.13 acres with the cottage and pond, and 33.67 acres of mature hardwood forest.Clean, light-colored walls, sloping rooflines, and a tall sculptural chimney give the main house a distinctly modern look. A curved wall encloses the front courtyard, where an outdoor fireplace is built into the base of the chimney, and leads to a deeply recessed entry and heavy wood door. Inside, the skylit entry opens to bright living spaces framed by large casement windows. The sunken living room gathers around a fireplace, and a den offers a quieter retreat. The kitchen pairs white flat-front cabinetry with butcher block counters and an island fitted with a gas cooktop beneath a stainless hood. A stacked pair of wall ovens is built into one wall, and the dining area is wrapped in a run of tall windows looking into the trees.A tucked-away birds nest room at the very top of the house makes a natural bedroom, reading perch, or studio. Front and rear decks look out over the gardens and grounds toward the pond. Outside, mature hardwood forest gives way to open fields and meadows crossed by fieldstone walls. Flower gardens frame the front and back of the house, along with an apple orchard, peach trees, and a fenced garden with raised beds and a shed. The still surface of the pool reflects the surrounding trees, and a dedicated 200-amp service is already in place for a future pool house. In winter, the pond freezes for skating. A treehouse and the stretch of the Roe Jan offer more to explore, and each spring the woods yield ramps and morels.Recent improvements include a new roof in 2024 and the upstairs bedroom addition in 2016. In 2008, the kitchen and skylit entry were added, the primary bedroom and bath were fully renovated, and a radiant floor heating system was installed in the kitchen, mudroom, primary bedroom, and bath. A Tesla charger is on site. Farther down the private drive, the cottage occupies its own 19 acres beside the pond, with a private dock at the waters edge. Inside, wood-paneled walls, white-painted floors, and windows onto the woods give the living room a relaxed cabin feel, centered on a white-painted brick fireplace, and a wood-burning stove warms the bedroom. With two bedrooms, one bath, and 1,008 square feet, the cottage is currently rented month to month, offering ongoing rental income or future use as a guest house or caretakers residence.Just down the road, Tivoli is one of the Hudson Valleys most beloved river villages: walkable, artistic, and close-knit, with sunsets that turn the Catskills blue across the Hudson. Mornings start with pastries from Tivoli Bread & Baking or coffee at Tivoli General, and summer evenings end with dinner at The Corner and a cone from Fortunes Ice Cream.
