RidgeVale is three new residences along a ridgeline in Stone Ridge — set within a broader landscape of meadow, forest, and open sky. Each home is sited within a defined building envelope, shaped by recorded conservation buffers that preserve the character of the ridge.
A place shaped by restraint. Where the architecture defers to the land, and arrival feels like recognition.
A gravel path through native meadow. White pine glowing from within. When the house appears, you understand how it was meant to be found.
Every entrance is a transition — from the pace of everything else, to the particular quiet of this ridge.
Meadow giving way to hardwood forest along a ridgeline in Stone Ridge. RidgeVale introduces three new homes, each sited to respond to the land's natural contours, with conservation buffers preserving privacy and protecting the ridge.

ValeHaus is the architectural language developed for RidgeVale's ridge — drawn from its light, sightlines, and seasonal character. Each residence responds to the site it occupies: oriented, not imposed.
Materials are chosen for how they settle in. White pine, stained for warmth against the metal. Corrugated metal softens against the sky. Concrete holds warmth. Nothing performs. Everything deepens.
The land teaches you whereJimmy & Shana — Developers, RidgeVale
the house wants to be.
You just have to listen.
RidgeVale is the result of a collaboration between architecture, craft, and stewardship of the land.

Interiors arranged around light at different hours. Open through the day, contained at night. Shared spaces oriented to the ridge. Private rooms shaped by morning light.
White Pine
Corrugated Metal
Corrugated metal that catches the ridge light and holds shadow. White pine stained warm to hold against it. Every surface chosen for how it settles in — quiet from the start.
Each residence is named for its position on the ridge — its own orientation, elevation, and character.
Set on the highest clearing, with filtered views toward the Catskill horizon.

Tucked beneath the tree line, where the land feels quieter and more held.
Beneath the canopy · Filtered light
Set where the field opens west, and the evening light lingers longest.
Meadow's edge · Open sky
A town with one stoplight, two excellent bakeries, and the kind of quiet that makes the city feel very far away — even though it isn't.
