Introducing High Point Estate. The ultimate merger of rustic & refined! Welcome to an ideal country estate to entertain in, go glamping on your 300 groomed and forested acres and then gather a group to binge-watch Yellowstone (there are definite Dutton Ranch vibes). The centerpiece is an 8800 SF stylishly updated 1895 Greek Revival farmhouse whose interior has been expanded and re-imagined as one of the grand Adirondack-style luxury lodge compounds of the Gilded Age. Iconic vaulted ceilings, birch walls, exposed beams, soaring native stone fireplaces, and spectacular antler chandeliers mirror the idyllic setting. Infinite opportunities for fresh air fun: groomed trails for hiking, horseback riding or snowmobiling and then kayaking, swimming and fishing in the pristine, man-made stocked pondwith massive stone diving board--only steps from the house. A spectacular Morton-designed red barn complex houses 8 horse stalls, massive tack room, comfy lounge and hay loft with 1700 bale storage. Also encompasses a massive heated machine shop. Adjacent is a 100 X 200' custom indoor riding arena with bath and storage and solar panels. This Great Escape is only 20 minutes to the cultural hub of Albany, with easy jaunts to Saratoga, Lake George, the Adirondacks, Catskills, and, of course, NYC. Your commute made even easier as there's ample space for helicopter or aircraft runway! The 5 bedroom 4.2 bath main house boasts 3 colossal woodburning fireplaces. The show stopping great room has an exposed-beam cathedral ceiling and 3 walls of windows overlooking the idyllic pastures.
