The Residence

The Property

More than a residence, The Retreat at Greentree is a fully realized compound — private, efficient, and architecturally significant, built for someone who values time, discretion, and a level of living that cannot be replicated. Spanning over 6,200 square feet, the estate blends iconic architecture with modern performance and thoughtfully curated living spaces that feel both refined and highly functional.

Architectural Significance

Originally designed by renowned architect Paul Rudolph, the residence carries a level of architectural pedigree rarely available in today’s market. The home seamlessly blends Rudolph’s design legacy with contemporary functionality, incorporating radiant heated floors, geothermal systems, and expansive living spaces designed for both comfort and sophistication. Every room has been carefully considered to create an atmosphere that feels elevated, warm, and effortlessly livable.
