Property Description

Spectacularly renovated and offered for the first time since its complete transformation, this exceptional pondfront residence overlooks Maiden Lake in the highly sought-after Fern Hill community. Designed for refined living with privacy and effortless indoor-outdoor flow, the home is clad in warm natural cedar siding that blends 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, close to respected private schools, and offers easy access to the Taconic Parkway and Albany International Airport. The thoughtfully designed interior features multiple private bedroom suites, lofted ceilings, and expansive light-filled living spaces. High-quality natural materials and craftsmanship are showcased throughout, including white oak flooring, cherry cabinetry, soapstone kitchen countertops, French oak stairs, and a custom single-stringer staircase with black steel detailing. Bedrooms feature maple flooring, while the loft or studio offers wide-board pine floors. The open main living area centers on a chef's kitchen with an oversized island and premium appliances by Bosch, Thermador, Fisher & Paykel, KitchenAid, and Zephyr. Bathrooms feature classic subway tile, marble countertops, and rain and hand-shower fixtures. Comfort and efficiency include Marvin triple-pane windows, automated skylights, radiant heated floors, heat pump heating and cooling, gas fireplace, whole-house generator, 400-amp service, updated systems, and ethernet throughout. A cherry-appointed laundry room and sun-filled mudroom add function and charm. The landscaped grounds include perennial gardens, bluestone walkways, raised beds, selective fencing, a charming barn with luxury sauna, wraparound Brazilian walnut deck, gazebo, additional pond-facing deck, and private dock. Nearby are Hudson cultural destinations.
