The acting couple made up of Joshua Leonard and Alison Pill are not only passionate about movies and theater. A couple of years ago they bought a house and took on the challenge of renovating it, now that same house is available on the real estate market.
Leonard and Pill purchased this property located in Hudson Valley, New York, for $718,000. This purchase took place in 2021 and two years later the place has raised its value to $4.2 million dollars, the current sale price.
By the time the couple came across the 200-year-old house, they realized it contained many overwhelming and mismatched styles, but that didn’t stop them from buying the place. It seems they saw a lot of potential in it.
The venue is built on a 20 acre lot and is known as ‘The Compound at Breezy Hill’.
The renovation of the place was carried out by Leonard himself, who is now dedicating himself to construction after a 25-year career as an actor. He even shares part of the process on his Instagram account.
The objective was to update the place at this time, but maintaining several of the original details. According to ‘The Wall Street Journal,’ initial plans were to raise the roof, expand the house by about 1,800 square feet, add a dome, and reconfigure the plan.
In addition to the main house there are two guest houses. Between the three structures there are a total of six bedrooms and six bathrooms. In addition to these houses there is a barn and a garage with capacity for two vehicles.
Of the interior of the three-story main house, it is worth mentioning its detail with reclaimed wood, original stone, white oak floors, French doors and a marble island in the kitchen.
Another of the most striking spaces is the main room with its own living room, balcony, dressing room and spa-like bathroom.
Outside there are large green areas with a terrace, a pond and many other spaces ideal for enjoying the outdoors.
