Property Description
Passive House New Build Near Minnewaska and the Shawangunk Ridge
If you've been looking for a home that feels as good as it looks, 658 Briggs Highway is worth your attention. Now under construction just outside the Village of Ellenville, NY, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath single-level modern home sits on 1.25 wooded acres at the base of the Shawangunk Ridge and brings together contemporary design, energy efficiency, and the kind of natural setting people move to the Hudson Valley for.
This is the kind of place where you can wake up surrounded by trees, spend the day hiking, skiing, climbing, or exploring nearby farm markets and restaurants, then come home to a quiet, comfortable space designed to support everyday well-being. You're about 2 hours from the George Washington Bridge, 8 minutes to Ellenville, 40 minutes to New Paltz, 50 minutes to Kingston, and 55 minutes to Woodstock. Outdoor destinations like Minnewaska State Park, Sam's Point, Mohonk Preserve, and the Shawangunk Ridge trail and climbing corridor are all close by, with skiing at Holiday Mountain, Belleayre, and Hunter within easy reach.
What makes this home truly different is how it was designed. Built using the same performance modeling tools required by the Passive House Institute Low Energy Building standard--including PHPP energy modeling, Flixo thermal bridge analysis, and WUFI hygrothermal analysis--the focus here is real-world comfort, durability, and long-term efficiency. Every detail has been engineered with Passive House cerified principles.
The walls and roof are designed for long-term performance. Continuous wood fiber exterior insulation wraps the home, while wall and roof cavities are filled with wood fiber batts, creating a vapor-open, bio-based assembly built to stay dry and resilient. ZIP System sheathing provides the structural air barrier, while Intello Plus smart vapor control helps manage moisture and eliminate drafts year-round.
The result is a home that stays comfortable in every season. The super-insulated slab-on-grade foundation helps keep floors warm even in winter--without the need for radiant heat. Triple-pane windows and doors were selected for thermal comfort, condensation resistance, and acoustic performance, meaning no cold glass and no drafty edges.
Indoor air quality was also a priority. A whole-house energy- and moisture-recovery ventilator (ERV/MRV) delivers filtered fresh air to every room, helps maintain healthy humidity in winter, and can improve indoor comfort during smoke events. The home is heated and cooled by efficient heat pumps, is fully electric with no combustion appliances, and is solar-ready and EV-charging-ready. It also surpasses upcoming New York State 2026 energy code requirements.
Architecturally, the home is warm, modern, and deeply connected to its setting. A long, low profile is tucked into a mature stand of white pines. Inside, a vaulted kitchen and living area with oversized windows and doors anchors the home, while the north side frames protected ledge views and opens to private decks. The exterior will feature site-milled pine cladding sourced from trees cleared on the property, paired with a standing seam metal roof built for decades of low-maintenance durability.
Because construction is still underway, early buyers may have the opportunity to influence finish selections and view the quality of the wall, roof, and slab assemblies before completion. Projected delivery: Summer/Fall 2026.
A rare chance to own a thoughtfully built modern home in one of the Hudson Valley's most naturally beautiful and recreation-rich locations. Full spec sheet, PHPP model, blower door results, and finish schedule available upon request.
