Property Description
At the heart of the property is a spectacular elevated homesite, ideally positioned to capture panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and countryside. Unlike typical mountaintop properties, where steep slopes limit usable acreage, Bald Mountain offers an expansive, open setting for a substantial custom residence. An established driveway and installed septic system provide a valuable head start toward realizing that vision.
The estate is complemented by an impressive collection of existing buildings and recreational amenities. A striking timber-frame pavilion features soaring ceilings, exposed beams, rich wood flooring, a dramatic great room with fireplace, a well-appointed kitchen and expansive glass doors opening toward the swimming pool and surrounding terraces. Additional gathering spaces, a distinctive suspended wood-burning fireplace and versatile upper-level areas further enhance this exceptional recreational retreat.
Other improvements include a charming guest cottage, separate estate studio, substantial garage with adjoining recreation studio, and a two-bedroom gatehouse and caretaker's residence overlooking a picturesque pond. Together, these buildings provide considerable flexibility for recreation, entertaining, estate management and accommodating guests, subject to applicable permitted uses.
The surrounding landscape is equally impressive, with rolling meadows, mature woodlands, scenic ponds, established trails and private roads extending throughout the property. The scale and diversity of the land offer an extraordinary sense of seclusion and countless opportunities to enjoy the natural surroundings.
Ideally situated between the Hudson Valley and Berkshires, the estate is approximately 20 minutes from Hillsdale, Catamount Mountain Resort, Great Barrington and Chatham; 40 minutes from Hudson and Amtrak service or Pittsfield; and 45 minutes from Albany. New York City is approximately 2½ hours away.
Offered with its extensive existing improvements, Bald Mountain also presents the opportunity to explore construction of a custom principal residence, with an established luxury builder located within the community available for consultation.
A truly exceptional offering for those seeking substantial acreage, remarkable natural beauty, existing estate infrastructure and the opportunity to create a distinctive Hudson Valley country compound.
