Set far back from one of the Hudson Valley’s most prestigious and scenic roads, this stunningly restored 1830s colonial farmhouse is a masterclass in combining historic charm with sophisticated living. Situated in the heart of the pastoral Shekomeko Valley on just under 10 pristine acres, this property offers ultimate privacy surrounded by large, rolling farms and protected acreage.
