A rare offering of scale, privacy, and refinement, Bellavista Country Estate is a magnificent 12,000-square-foot Georgian brick residence set on over 25 secluded acres in the foothills of the Berkshires, perfectly positioned between the Hudson River Valley and the Berkshires. Designed for elegant country living at the highest level, the estate offers six to nine beautifully appointed bedrooms, including three full suites, five bathrooms, multiple fireplaces, a fully equipped eat-in kitchen, and a gracious formal dining room—an exceptional blend of timeless architecture and modern luxury. The grounds are equally compelling, featuring a spacious in-ground pool, a tranquil pond, and direct access to miles of hiking and snowshoeing trails, including those of the Old Chatham Hunt Club. Indoors, amenities rival those of a private resort, with a full gym, game and entertainment room, home theater, and a refined library creating an environment of comfort, recreation, and retreat. A finished attic and an impressive 4,500-square-foot barn with foosball and ping pong provide additional flexible space for leisure and gathering. Fiber-optic internet and a full-house generator ensure seamless modern living, while the estate's thoughtful infrastructure and meticulous maintenance support effortless year-round ownership. Bellavista stands as a premier private estate, offering a rare combination of total privacy, exceptional amenities, and enduring quality. Just minutes from Chatham, Hudson, and Kinderhook—and a short drive to Lenox, Stockbridge, and Great Barrington—the property is surrounded by acclaimed farm-to-table dining, art galleries, organic markets, and the historic Crandell Theater. Easily accessible via the Taconic Parkway or I-87 from New York City, I-90 from Boston, Amtrak to Penn Station, and Albany International Airport, Bellavista is as convenient as it is extraordinary.
