On 78+ acres with some of the most spectacular Catskill and Berkshire Mountain views in southern Columbia County. The compound includes two buildings of living space, a gated entrance, a screened teahouse, a potting building, a dining arbor, individually fenced gardens and one of the finest private collections of woody plants in the northeast. The gardens were designed by the owner, an award-winning garden writer and photographer, over a twenty year period. The half-mile driveway curves through open pastures, past two ponds, around a high knoll, between wildflower borders and a woodland, to the private and secluded sanctuary at the top of the hill.
