Built by famed California developer Joseph Eichler in 1962, the newly revamped home was recently featured in a sci-fi film starring Colin Farrell.

A slice of California modernism is up for grabs in the Northeast. Located just 30 minutes north of Manhattan in Spring Valley, New York, the rare post-and-beam home was designed by renowned architects Jones and Emmons and built in 1962 by developer Joseph Eichler.

The 1962 midcentury at 130 Grotke Road is conveniently located just a short drive from Manhattan. A bright blue door pops amidst the home’s black exterior siding.

Boasting signature midcentury modern features, the five-bedroom abode is one of only three Eichlers located along the East Coast. But that’s not the only aspect that sets it apart. Earlier this year, the property served as the main house for the upcoming sci-fi film After Yang starring Colin Farrell.

Glass walls encapsulate the open-plan living room, which rests directly under the home's double A-frame roof. The exposed beams, ceilings, and fireplace were painted a crisp white as part of the renovation. Wide-plank, herringbone-patterned floors were also laid throughout.
