Panoramic mountain and forest views frame a living landscape enriched by hundreds of plant varieties, including rare native orchids, trilliums, ferns, and lilies, forming a self-sustaining ecosystem of exceptional refinement.
Anchoring the property is a celebrated farm-to-table restaurant and craft brewery, offering elegant indoor and outdoor dining, and a culinary program rooted in seasonal, locally sourced ingredients. A beautifully appointed event space provides the capacity to host elevated celebrations, private retreats, and corporate gatherings. An established nursery and perennial plant business, complete with multiple greenhouses and mature growing areas.
Improvements include a restaurant, rustic chalet, an event center, gazebos, forested acreage, open meadows, and the potential for private lodging or a distinguished owner’s residence.
Proven income streams include:
• Restaurant, bar, and brewery
• Weddings, private events, and corporate retreats

Located approximately 2.5 hours from the George Washington Bridge, the estate offers rare seclusion and tranquility while remaining accessible to New York City’ clientele.
