The late sculptor Chester Beach, known for his busts and works of medallic art, resided at this Brewster property until his death in 1956.

The estate where the prolific sculptor Chester Beach created his iconic busts and other works of art has hit the market for $3.5 million, The Post has learned.

Located in Brewster, New York, Beach purchased the land in 1915. Shortly after, he hired Italian stonemasons to build a studio. Later, they erected a summer house for him and his family. Many old stone walls on the site provided material for both buildings and Beach named the property Oldwalls.“283 Starr Ridge road is an absolutely magical property. Upon arrival you feel like you’ve been transported to a European estate steeped in history,” Margaret Harrington, who holds the listing with Douglas Elliman, told The Post.

“The studio is my favorite structure on the property. It’s inspiring to know this is where Chester Beach created his stunning sculptures.”Douglas Elliman
