Photographer Alexi Lubomirski’s New York House Lists for $2.2 Million


Alexi Lubomirski has taken Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s engagement and royal wedding photos. He’s also captured striking images of everyone from Beyoncé to Julia Roberts for Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, and more.  But one of the celebrity and fashion lensman‘s lesser-known works can be found in the peaceful and affluent New York suburb of Mahopac, about 45 minutes from Manhattan, where he and his environmental activist wife Giada have spent the past two decades restoring and modernizing a charming centuries-old farmhouse.

Originally built in 1825 for one of the area’s largest agriculturalists and acquired by the couple in 2015 for a mere $550,000, the meticulously preserved and updated residence is now back on the market for a dash under $2.2 million. Alissa Kronovet of Houlihan Lawrence holds the listing, with all the pad’s antique furnishings available for purchase separately.

Nestled on over three acres laced with mature maple trees, near the private Sedgewood Club offering lake, golf, and tennis access, the Colonial structure’s white wood-sided facade is accented with rows of black-shuttered windows. Inside, three bedrooms and two baths are filtered across almost 1,800 square feet on two levels with the original wood floors. A security system and a whole-house generator have also been added to the mix.

An entry foyer flows to a light-filled living room, which comes with a wood-burning fireplace, a bookshelf-lined reading nook, a built-in window seat, and a door leading out to a covered patio surrounded by grape vines. There’s also a six-seat dining room, plus a newly renovated kitchen outfitted with custom sage-hued cabinetry, butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a large butler’s pantry holding a second refrigerator.

An upstairs primary bedroom with a walk-in closet shares a full bath with two guest bedrooms, while a fully finished basement with heated floors, another bath, and a spacious recreation room opens out to a wooded backyard spotlighted by herb and rose gardens and a bluestone-encased swimming pool. Also on the grounds are storage, wood, and garden sheds, as well as an attached one-car garage.
