This stunning barn converted into a guest house by Crisp Architects is located in Millbrook, a village in Dutchess County, New York. Millbrook is located in the Hudson Valley, on the east side of the Hudson River, 90 miles north of New York City. Planting and maintaining the grapevines is the first step of winemaking. Harvesting and processing the grapes is the second step. Having friends over to test the results is the most important step, and all the bases covered with this structure.
Tractors and other equipment for the vineyard, as well as the winemaking apparatus, reside on the first floor while guests visit comfortably above. The owners are just learning the subtleties of winemaking, but have long been experts in making their friends feel welcome.
In the kitchen, the island dimensions are 7′-8″ X 3′-5″. The floor is vintage heart pine that has been hand planed. It has an Early American stain that was applied and then almost immediately wiped off to keep the dark color of the stain but show more wood grain.
