Property Description

Set across 280 extraordinary acres in the western Catskills, Eagles RidgeFarm is not merely a property, but a fully realized private world, anirreplaceable convergence of art, architecture, wilderness, and legacy.Bordered by thousands of acres of protected wilderness within thehistoric sphere of the Gould and Rockefeller Catskills holdings, the estateretains the scale and quiet grandeur of a disappearing era. Assembledover generations, the property carries forward a tradition of deeplypersonal estates created not simply for habitation, but for reflection,creativity, and permanence.Unlike many great legacy properties lost to subdivision or time, thisextraordinary holding remains remarkably intact, a singular offering ofcultural depth, ecological scale, and privacy that would be nearlyimpossible to recreate today.Just over two hours from New York City, the property unfolds acrossforests, open meadows, private streams, and mountain ridgelines risingto 2,270 feet. More than ten miles of trails weave throughout the land,revealing swimming holes, moss-covered pathways, sculptural clearings,and panoramic viewpoints that feel entirely removed from the modernworld.At the heart of the estate lies one of the most extraordinaryenvironmental sculptures ever created, Michael Ayrtons stone maze.Conceived by Wall Street investor and contemporary art collectorArmand Erpf after reading Ayrtons The Maze Maker, a fictionalautobiography of Daedalus, the work was commissioned directly fromthe celebrated English sculptor and completed in 1965.Believed to be the largest stone maze built since antiquity, the workstretches approximately 1,680 feet and is anchored by original bronzesdepicting Daedalus, Icarus, and the Minotaur. Both artwork andimmersive landscape experience, it transforms the property intosomething far beyond a traditional country estate, a museum-qualityassemblage woven into the landscape itself, equal parts philosophicalenvironment and living work of art.Near the entrance to the stone maze, a smaller contemplative labyrinthoffers a quieter moment of reflection within the landscape. More than adozen additional sculptures are woven throughout the grounds,reinforcing the estates identity as a place shaped as much byimagination as by architecture.The main residence was fully renovated in 2016 for modern mountainliving while preserving its timeless relationship to the surroundinglandscape. Spanning approximately 5,300 square feet with eightbedrooms and seven-and-a-half baths, the home opens to expansiveterraces, formal gardens, wide lawns, and sweeping mountain views. Ameditative cupola crowns the residence, creating a rare balance betweenrefinement and wilderness.Beyond a covered cedar staircase and moss-lined bluestone paths sits abeautifully restored 2,800-square-foot brick guest house with threeprivate apartments, offering flexible accommodations for guests,caretakers, artists, or multi-generational living.The estate further includes: An 800-square-foot pool house with kitchenette and changing roomsA heated 56 x 24 pool with expansive bluestone terraceA five-stall horse barn and polo stick-and-ball fieldGarages accommodating up to six vehiclesAn office cabin and trout stream pump houseA Har-Tru tennis court ready for resurfacing for tennis or pickleballWired and wireless high-speed internet and comprehensive securityinfrastructureExisting systems supporting future off-grid energy potentialThe land itself is among the propertys greatest luxuries.
