Spectacular 100+ Acre Equestrian Estate | Premier Horse Farm Opportunity Within Approximately 90 Minutes of NYC A truly exceptional 100+ acre equestrian estate offering a rare combination of historic character, modern amenities, exceptional equestrian facilities, and expansive acreage. This remarkable property presents an outstanding opportunity for a private equestrian estate, professional training operation, boarding facility, equestrian center, or other income-producing use, all within approximately 90 minutes of New York City. At the heart of the property is an iconic 1720s cattle barn masterfully transformed into a stunning residence. The beautifully renovated open-concept home features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, dramatic cathedral ceilings accented by rough-sawn chestnut, hand-scraped oak floors, and a custom staircase crafted from chestnut wood harvested on the property. The residence beautifully blends historic character with modern luxury. The expansive kitchen features high-end finishes, a center island, pantry, and wet bar, while three decks overlook the spectacular grounds and surrounding countryside. The equestrian facilities are equally impressive. A custom 13-stall modern barn features 12' x 12' matted stalls, a dedicated wash and grooming stall, approximately 24' x 12' tack room/kitchen/break room, laundry/feed room, and bathroom. The upper level includes a spacious hay loft, fully functioning office, partially finished caretaker's apartment, and large great room, offering tremendous flexibility for equestrian and residential uses. Additional facilities include an 8-stall shed row, four oversized paddocks with Nelson automatic waterers that can be divided into as many as eight individual turnout areas, and a separate barn providing extensive storage for equipment, vehicles, trailers, and farm necessities. Approximately 4--6 wells provide substantial water infrastructure throughout the property. The expansive acreage offers privacy, room for additional improvements, and extensive opportunities for riding, turnout, recreation, and continued development of the equestrian operation. Rare Opportunity to Expand to Nearly 125 Acres An extraordinary opportunity exists for a buyer to acquire this property together with the contiguous equestrian facility at 5 McCarthy Road, Listing #1003257. Purchased together, the two properties would create a nearly 125-acre equestrian compound with an exceptional collection of facilities. The combined properties would offer two residences, two exceptional barns, approximately 31 stalls, an indoor riding arena, an outdoor riding arena with ESI footing, extensive paddocks and turnout, miles of riding trails, and a large pond--creating an exceptional foundation for a professional training and boarding operation, multi-disciplinary equestrian center, horseman's estate, or premier private equestrian compound. The ability to combine two contiguous, established equestrian properties of this caliber is extraordinarily rare. For the serious equestrian buyer, the combined offering provides remarkable scale, infrastructure, and flexibility while maintaining the privacy and character of a spectacular Hudson Valley estate. Whether purchased individually or together with 5 McCarthy Road, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to acquire a substantial equestrian property with the acreage, facilities, and infrastructure to support virtually limitless possibilities. Note: The owner would consider selling the home with a few acres without the barn should someone be interested in the home only.
