The Hitchcock Estate is an exceptional property in size, location and history. The property has 2078 acres intact since the first owner assembled it from 5 area farms in 1889. Located in the heart of Millbrook, NY it has remained undeveloped, shrouded in mystique, the subject of curiosity and imagination providing now and then a glimpse into its elegant and storied past. Beginning as a summer retreat from New York City, 1 ½ hours' drive away, Millbrook has long been a destination for peaceful weekends and summer escapes. This vast estate has been in the hands of a single owner for the past 60 years with only 2 owners in between the first and last. It is rare and valuable and offers many different uses. It has been maintained and cared for through the years. For now it is farmed self-sufficiently with extensive hay fields providing hay for the cattle farm. The stone farm buildings, updated over the years, are the same ones built and used by the first owner from over a century ago. The 2078 acres of prime land is in a prime location, wooded and open with 2 large lakes (45 and 60 acres) and other ponds. The rectangular shape of the land has frontage on 4 roads. There are 2 major main houses. The restored main Mansion, on its own deed, is 14,706 sq ft designed by James E. Ware in the late 1800's and the guest house, called the Bungalow, is 10,000 sq ft, was designed by Addison Mizner in 1912. There is a stone Bowling Alley and a fanciful Gate House both built in Bavarian style, a 3 bedroom Cottage, a Carriage house with 2 apartments. 2 Farmhouses, Barns and former Tennis pavilion. Altogether a complete and desirable many faceted domain. Additional Information: HeatingFuel:Oil Above Ground,

Set in the hills above Millbrook, West Meadow is encircled as far as the eye can see by endless, heart-stopping views of the entire Hudson Valley. The house and pool sit on a beautifully landscaped plateau above a sloping lawn that gives way to a prolific cutting garden, rose beds, tennis court wrapped in wisteria vines, and groomed meadows. A fruit orchard and abundant vegetable garden enhance the pastoral beauty while providing a measure of sustainability. The architect Pietro Cicognani designed a home that harmoniously balances details of comfort, beauty, modernity, and history. West Meadow feels as if it’s been in place for centuries. The spacious great room boasts two 18th century stone fireplaces and floors of limestone tile imported from France. Fresh air and light pour in through six custom French doors facing both east and west. The library opens to a long covered porch and one of many stunning views. A central gathering place for friends and loved ones, the kitchen is warmed by a fireplace with pizza oven.
