This meticulously preserved and restored iconic country compound, known as the Benjamin Meeker Homestead, sits back on 4.7 lush, private acres surrounded by unparalleled bucolic beauty along a scenic stretch of the Saugatuck River, bordered by 350 acres of conservancy land and offers a myriad of outstanding amenities including dedicated private work-from-home office space. The magnificent grounds include a free-form Gunite pool, a tennis court, perennial gardens, mature trees, sweeping green lawns, expansive stone walls and terraces, stream, pond and dazzling waterfall. The home, the heart and soul of this remarkable estate, has retained its historic integrity by preserving period details that merge seamlessly with modern updates. Complementing the main residence are three stunning outbuildings, all of which provide living, work and entertainment space for guests and extended family... a spectacular chestnut Barn with 2 levels of chic living/recreation space and an attached Machin-designed Greenhouse; a c.1786 Carriage House and a c.1830 Barn and Buttery. This singular estate is a rare and exceptional treasure. A resort in the Summer, a wonderland in the Winter, a safe haven for multi-generational living and a private retreat for a lifetime of memories. 53 miles to NYC! It doesn't get better than this.
