Pavilions in the Palisades 

Titled "Four Pavilions," this house between the Palisades and Wesley Heights stands out due to its original design by Hugh Newell Jacobsen, and subsequent renovation by RWA, Greg Bleam Landscape Architect, and Zantzinger. The exterior consists of four main staggered sections with pitched roofs. The living room includes sweeping ceilings with skylights, a unique porthole window, sliding doors that connect to the wraparound porch and three hidden doors that lead to a laundry room, a full bathroom and a closet. A primary suite also has hidden closets, as well as a modern wooden panel backsplash for a headboard and access to the deck beyond. The galley kitchen is sleek with tons of hidden white cabinetry and marble counters.
