Paul Rudolph’s Bernhard Residence Addition at 21 Hycliff Road in Greenwich, Connecticut is for sale.

Drive through unique stone pillars to enter a serene and idyllic world punctuated by the rushing sound of the Byram River. Set amid the mature landscape is a unique home with a dramatic expansion by the noted mid-century modern architect, Paul Rudolph.

The addition was designed for Robert and Joan Bernhard in 1976. Rudolph’s design turned the existing living room into a new dining room and created an addition for a new living room, sitting room and screened porch. Rudolph oriented the new and repurposed spaces to capture the western sunsets.

The house offers an amazing living room and screen porch perched on columns 25 feet above the property as it rolls down to the Byram River 100' below. Characteristic of this architectural style popular in the mid 20th Century, building materials and structural features are to be visible artistic elements.

A generous master suite and 3 further bedrooms, pool plus a 2 bedroom garage apartment offer a timeless lifestyle.
