'Dirty Dancing' Producer's Westchester House Chassés On To The Market

POUND RIDGE, NY — If you're a fan of "Dirty Dancing" or "Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey," this $5.99 million mid-century modern stone and glass property in Pound Ridge might be just your style, once you've searched through every open door and found the truth.

According to Mansion Global, the property on Col. Sheldon Road in Pound Ridge, that went on the market this week, is being sold by film producer Mitchell Cannold, who is looking to downsize. The house might look a little familiar because it has been used in commercials for several brands, including Diet Coke, Samsung, Zara and Bruno Magli, according to Cannold.

The listing, by Nancy Strong and Stacey Oestreich of Douglas Elliman Real Estate, describes the property known as "Sanctuary" as a "mid-century modern masterpiece converted to an entirely app-controlled smart home." The stone and glass house, built in 1999, was designed by architects Depardon & Ogawa and renowned landscaper Glenn Ticehurst.

According to the Douglas Elliman listing, the six-bedroom, 4.3-bathroom, 8,147-sq.-ft. house on 6.5 acres has a 50' pool, a four-seat hot tub, a surrounding pond framed by soaring trees in a forest, high ceilings, walls of windows that reveal stunning 360-degree views, an open foyer overlooking a two-story living room with a fireplace, a Scavolini-designed gourmet kitchen with an indoor/outdoor breakfast room, and a dining room slider that opens to a courtyard. The first floor includes a primary bedroom suite with a deck, a library, two bedrooms with a shared bath, a home office and two guest 1/2 bathrooms. The lower level includes an ensuite bedroom, two bedrooms with a large shared bath, a 4kHD professional home theater with surround sound and director screen, a laundry room, a pool guest 1/2 bath and a three-car heated garage. All the bedrooms have walk-out private patios.

According to property records, the estate was last sold in 2015 for $2.6 million.

Cannold revealed to Mansion Global that he spent $2.5 million completely updating the property in 2016, including bathrooms, kitchens, all new mechanicals and adding radiant heat flooring throughout. He also told the luxury real estate website that the landscaping he chose for the property was inspired by architect Maya Lin's Wavefield at the Storm King Art Center in New Windsor. In addition, he restored the pond which had become overgrown with invasive plants and added another pool.

The deck outside the primary bedroom suite with 360-degree views and the high-end custom-made home theater were the two features Cannold told Mansion Global were his two favorite spaces of the estate.
