Foxglove & Fern 311 County Route 13 Old Chatham, Нью-Йорк 12136 Соединенные Штаты

Tucked into the heart of the Hudson Valley, where the rhythm of life slows and the air carries the scent of earth and wildflowers, lies Foxglove & Fern — a 101-acre sanctuary waiting to welcome its next chapter. As you follow the gentle curve of the circular driveway, the world beyond melts away, replaced by rolling meadows, ancient trees, and the shimmering reflection of a private pond that seems to hold the sky itself.
This is more than a home — it’s a storybook estate where generations gather, laughter echoes across the hills, and every sunrise brings new adventures. The main house offers seven spacious bedrooms, each filled with soft natural light and views that shift with the seasons. Two of these rooms have their own stories to tell — once lovingly appointed as a study and a private library, where books lined the walls and quiet inspiration flowed. Easily returned to their original purpose, these spaces offer endless possibilities, whether you seek a creative retreat, a home office, or intimate reading nooks tucked away from the world.
The living room, wrapped in warmth, invites you to curl up with a book on crisp autumn evenings. In the dining room, a hand-laid stone fireplace anchors the space, where stories are shared over candlelit dinners and the aromas of home-cooked meals fill the air. The kitchen, with its welcoming island, is a hub of connection — a place for morning coffee, impromptu baking sessions, and the comforting hum of life unfolding. Outfitted with stainless steel appliances and a high-end Viking double oven, this space is as functional as it is inviting, perfect for both casual gatherings and culinary creations.
Equestrians will find themselves at home here as well, with a thoughtfully designed 12-stall stable complete with a heated tack room, paddocks, run-in sheds, and outdoor riding facilities. Trails wind through the property, inviting leisurely rides or quiet nature walks. Just beyond, a detached office offers a quiet, fully-wired workspace — ideal for remote work without ever leaving the serenity of the property. And for those drawn to the water, the property offers approximately ¼ mile of frontage along the Kinderhook Creek. A charming pebble beach provides the perfect spot to skip stones, launch a float, or drift downstream on a lazy summer afternoon, letting the gentle current carry you through a landscape alive with nature.
Outdoors, life unfolds across a stunning landscape. One of two private ponds on the property, the 2.5-acre pond is perfect for leisurely days spent gliding across the water in a small boat, casting a line, or simply watching the ripples dance in the afternoon sun. Nearby, a fully appointed stone patio offers space to lounge, entertain, and dine under the open sky. As day fades to dusk, gather around the wood-burning outdoor fireplace, where stories flow as easily as the crackling flames. The basketball court and playground create a haven for all ages, while lush gardens burst with color and fragrance throughout the growing season.
Despite its sense of seclusion, Foxglove & Fern enjoys an enviable location. Just a scenic drive away, the pristine waters of Lake George offer boating, swimming, and lakeside adventures, while the surrounding mountains call to hikers and skiers alike. With Hudson and Amtrak only 30 minutes away, and both New York City and Boston reachable within 2.5 hours, this is the rare property that balances private retreat with effortless access to vibrant destinations.
