The proximity and privacy of this compound is unmistakable, within driving distance of New York City, Boston and all the Hudson Valley and Berkshire attractions.Fiddlehead, this 4 bedroom 3.5 bathroom 3500 square foot home, is named after the unique little fern forest that the private road to this location affords.

The residence is expansive yet incredibly comfortable and full of light and dark making every nook playful and more interesting as the day progresses.
