Property Description
Designed and built between 1906 and 1907 by renowned architects Delano and Aldrich, as the summer residence of Judge Learned Hand this gracious Colonial has been wonderfully preserved and maintained for more than a century. Set behind a gated, tree-lined gravel driveway, this exceptional example of early 20th-century Georgian architecture offers a comforting sense of privacy and serenity.
Situated on 16 acres in the heart of Bedford Hills, NY—surrounded by majestic and specimen trees and perennial gardens—the property offers all the hallmarks of a classic country estate: a heated pool, a charming guest cottage, a classic greenhouse, a caretaker's cottage, a detached two-car garage and two property maintenance facilities.
This house has the iconic Delano and Aldrich grace and grandeur that you would expect, with lovely high ceilings, broad entrances to gathering rooms, inviting fireplaces in both the spacious living room and the large, formal dining room. Framed-glass French doors lead out both rooms into a grand sunroom – which, in turn, is bordered by a stone outdoor terrace - perfect for enjoying the gardens and peaceful surroundings in summer and as a sunlit entertaining space in winter. The kitchen, with its adjoining sitting room, invites thoughts of warm, intimate suppers.
Upstairs, the primary, bedroom features its own fireplace and offers a large, comfortable retreat. The ensuite bath evokes the luxury of a long soak in the tub. A former sleeping porch, with adjoining guest quarters, has been converted into a charming playroom, and another spacious family bedroom both with the hall bathroom. All bedrooms enjoy their own fireplaces with differentiated mantels. Large, casement windows encompass a variety of ever-changing views of the lovely gardens from each of these second floor rooms.
The third floor houses two substantial, additional bedrooms, a classic bathroom, a skylit artist's studio, with abundant natural light, its atelier and generous storage space.
