About this home

Spectacularly renovated and offered for the first time since its complete transformation, this exceptional pond front residence overlooking Maiden Lake is located within the highly sought-after Fern Hill community and offers refined design, privacy, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. The home is clad in warm natural cedar siding, lending timeless character while blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. Maiden Lake is a shared pond maintained by the Fern Hill HOA with private swimming access. Set on a quiet country road just outside the Hawthorne Valley hamlet, the property is minutes to Great Barrington, Massachusetts, close to respected private schools, and offers convenient access to the Taconic Parkway and Albany International Airport, allowing for easy travel from New York, Boston, and Connecticut. The thoughtfully designed home features multiple private bedroom suites, lofted ceilings, and expansive light-filled living spaces. Interior finishes highlight exceptional natural materials and craftsmanship, including white oak flooring in the main living areas, cherry cabinetry, soapstone kitchen countertops, French oak stairs, and a custom single-stringer stair with a black steel beam, black steel railing, and white oak banister. Bedroom suites feature maple flooring, while the upstairs loft, office, or studio includes wide-board pine floors. Custom wainscoting and a dedicated linen closet serve the bedroom suite hallway. The open main living area centers around a well-appointed chef's kitchen with an oversized dining island and additional dining space. Premium stainless steel appliances include a Bosch wall oven, Thermador gas cooktop, Fisher and Paykel refrigerator, KitchenAid dishwasher, and Zephyr range hood. Bathrooms feature white subway tile, marble sink countertops, rain and hand-shower fixtures, and wood-grained porcelain tile flooring. The home is filled with light and comfort through Marvin triple-pane windows and doors with built-in shades, automated skylights, and thermal skylight shades. Ceiling fans, insulated thermic shades, and remote-operated skylights enhance energy efficiency and airflow. Multiple dedicated home office areas support flexible modern living. Year-round comfort is provided by an energy-efficient heat pump system with heating and cooling, radiant heated floors in the main living areas and primary bathroom, and a separate gas furnace serving the rear portion of the home. A whole house backup generator provides added peace of mind. Additional upgrades include high-efficiency insulation, fully updated plumbing and electrical systems, a 400-amp electric service, and ethernet outlets. A gas fireplace adds warmth to the main living space. The laundry room includes cherry cabinetry and Bosch stackable washer and dryer units. The entry mudroom features a brick floor, bluestone bench seating, antique wood beams, a Buderus European-style radiator, abundant windows and skylights, and generous storage. The landscaped grounds include perennial gardens, bluestone walkways, copper gutters and drainspouts, selective fencing suitable for small livestock or chickens, and fenced raised-bed gardens. A charming barn includes a three-to-four-person luxury sauna with an Amerec SaunaLogic controller and Laava series heater. Outdoor living is exceptional, with an expansive wraparound Brazilian walnut deck, a spacious gazebo with sweeping pond views, an additional deck overlooking the water, and a dock. This rare offering blends natural beauty, modern comfort, and the coveted Fern Hill lifestyle in an ideal location. Cultural destinations like Hudson galleries, Art Omi, Tanglewood, and Jacob's Pillow are nearby, along with skiing at Catamount, Jiminy Peak, and Butternut. Best of all, Hawthorne Valley Waldorf School and the renowned Hawthorne Valley Farm Store—featuring the highest quality local, organic, and biodynamic food—are just moments away by foot or bicycle....
